FAITH IN COMMUNITY
Adult Ministries
We believe discipleship happens in relationship. Through Care Groups, Missional Discipleship Groups, and our Men's and Women's Groups, we create space to study God's Word, pray together, and encourage one another.
We also build relationships through service and fellowship. Menno Knotters, Hilltop Luncheon, Book Discussion Group, and Ping Pong are a few ways we gather, have fun, and build friendships. See our Event Calendar to learn more about these opportunities.
INTELLECTUAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL
Disability Ministry
Our ministry for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities includes a special Sunday class on the third Sunday of each month and monthly activities in partnership with Cumberland Vista residence in Dillsburg. We also host a community-wide Spring Fling for adults and their caregivers each March. Contact the church office to learn more about any of these opportunities.
PASTORAL SUPPORT
Care and Counseling
Our pastors, supported by the Elder Team, provide pastoral care to the congregation. Slate Hill also offers individual, couples, marriage and family counseling. For more information about counseling or to request pastoral care, please contact Pastor Lynn or Pastor Joy.
