Together We're Better

GU Fall Semester 10.1-11.19

Let's strengthen our foundation and grow in our faith, our knowledge of God, and in His Word! From basic theology and how to pray effective prayers to figuring out our calling - and what to do when we find out what that is - Garden University (GU) provides tools and resources necessary to grow as a disciple of Jesus...and we're ALL always growing!

Everyone is encouraged to participate in this Garden Leadership and Discipleship Training.
This 8-week semester includes NEW concepts to clarify the vital alignment necessary to accomplish the plan God's given us!  

Older kids and teens are encouraged to register for GU! Limited childcare is available for kids 6-weeks through 5th grade, if that's necessary for your family to participate. Soon after you register, you'll receive a confirmation email that will include details on getting your kids signed up. Once we hit the maximum teacher to gKIDS ratio in a class, that age-group will close. gKIDS have their own custom curriculum and we're providing dinner for them!

GU takes place during the fall and winter seasons and Grow Groups happen in spring and summer.  

Our 8-week Fall Semester runs Tuesdays, October 1 through November 19!  We'll meet from 6:30-8pm in the sanctuary, with light snacks provided before we begin and during our mid-session break.

Get details and register online or just show up Tuesday night and dive in! 

LOOKING AHEAD: Our 8-week Winter 2025 Semester kicks off January 7 and wraps up February 25!

SUMMER SEMESTER | JULY 14-August 24

We believe that real life happens in the context of relationship and Grow Groups are a place we can grow, laugh, and serve ... together!

Grow Groups gather for 6-week semesters during the spring and summer and our Summer Semester runs Sunday, July 14, through Saturday, August 24.

We believe this summer is going to one of the best ones we've had here at The Garden!  Have you considered hosting a group? Let's make that happen! Click that "Host a Group" button below and we'll walk you through it.  To give everyone a chance to see all the Grow Groups we have to choose from, please register to host your group no later than Sunday, July 7.  If you have ANY questions or want to brainstorm group ideas, give us a call at 509-735-1650 or email us at info@thegardentricities.com.  Thank you for investing and helping others win! You rock!

Want to get to know other people and grow in your walk with God? New Grow Groups are added to the lineup as we get them so check that "Find a Group" button and sign up!

“Now, this means that when we come together and are side by side, something wonderful will be released. We can expect to be co-encouraged and co-comforted by each other’s faith!”  Romans 1:12 The Passion Translation
