Beechwood desires to have all of our ministries form and grow people spiritually - in Christ. Whether you're new to the faith or seeking to serve in reaching out to others, join us for any of these growth opportunities:
Alpha Course Inquirers' Class Outreach LIFE Groups
Discovering Your Gifts and Talents
 The Alpha Course is a 10-week course that is designed for those who are exploring what Christianity is all about. It's for the new Christian or those who want to brush up on the basics of the faith. No question is turned away; we will seek to answer the difficult questions and have fun doing it!
Alpha meets every Thursday at 6:15 pm. We start with a great meal, a teaching, dessert and a Q & A time! It dismisses at 8:30 pm. Child care is provided.
The fall session of Alpha begins September 25. If you have any questions, contact the Alpha leader, Bob McAndrews at (616) 748-9067
The first night isn’t a commitment. It’s simply a chance to see if Alpha might be right for you. Bring a friend. If you like what you hear and want to return for the rest of the course, we’d love to have you.
 The Inquirers' Class runs three consecutive Sundays with lunch provided each day. The class is offered to anyone who wants to learn more about Christianity, the Church, and Beechwood Church in particular. It doubles as a membership class for those who wish to join Beechwood or make a profession of faith. Scheduled for this fall Sept. 28, Oct. 5 and 12 from 12:30 - 2:00pm in the Loft. Contact the church office to pre-register, otherwise just show up! Led by Pastor Jim Lankheet.
Outreach - If you'd like to help grow God's kingdom, check out these opportunities to learn to reach out to others.
 LIFE Groups - We believe that small groups are a crucial part of any Christian's faith journey, providing a place for people to grow through study, discussion, self-discovery and connection with others. Look for a small group to join today!
