Small Groups – Women & Men’s Ministry
We believe God intended life to be lived in community. While our worship services are great for worship and hearing the Word of God, small groups is where a life of faith is lived out. It’s where we build close relationships, bear one another’s burdens, and wrestle with our fears, doubts and what it means to follow Jesus in our daily lives. Some of our life groups are based on common phase of life (seniors, singles, etc), some are organized around a particular study topic (prayer, generosity, etc). If you’d like a current list of groups, want to visit a group or have any other questions, call the church at 304-252-5120 or Minister Gary Hosey for Men’s Ministry or Cecilia “Sally” Chapman for Women’s Ministry.
Children’s Ministry
Jesus said “Let the little children come to me.” One of Beckley Praise Church’s primary goals is to lead children to Jesus. Children’s Church is a fun, up-beat service that includes music, games and a bible lesson. It’s for kids 3 years old through 5th grade and takes place at 10 AM during our Sunday school hour and at 11am during our Morning Worship Service.
Youth Ministry
We believe our youth are not just the church of tomorrow but the church of today! Our youth group is for middle school and high school students and meets every Wednesday from 7 to 8:30 PM in the youth room. For more information about other activities, see the calendar. If you or your youth want to be more involved or have any other questions, please contact Pastor Cecilia “Sally” Chapman, cchapwv@yahoo.com or Pastor Paul Chapman, bpcseniorpastor@yahoo.com
Missions
Becklley Praise Church has developed a wonderful partnership with many of our Missionaries around the world. We are currently working with Calvary Worship Church and Water for Nations in Nairobi, Kenya and providing much need clean water for one of our schools. Each year we send a team out to serve and fellowship with our brothers and sisters around the globe. In between our annual missions’ trips, our members sponsor children, coffee house ministries, schools, special needs teacher in Haiti so they can go to school, and also pray for one another throughout the year.
