We believe faith is a journey, not a destination: Fellow travelers welcome.
We offer a variety of spiritual growth opportunities to choose from, including Adult Education classes, Small Groups, and separate programs and retreats for men and women, and many other fellowship opportunities.
Our hope is that these programs will spark your interest and ignite within you a deeper awareness of the spiritual issues of our time, a deeper understanding of God’s teachings in the Scriptures, and a deeper love of Jesus Christ.

Adult Sunday School
Around the time APC was founded (some 300 years ago), an estimated 80% of the world’s Christian population lived in the Global North (Europe and North America) and the remaining 20% in the Global South (Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Pacific). Not many years from now, the demographic reality will have flipped, from 20% in the Global South to 80%. Even in academic circles, the story behind this dramatic shift in Christianity’s center of gravity is not particularly well-known. Drawing on resources developed by a new field of study known as World Christianity, the course offers an update on the complex dynamics involved globally and explores their implications locally.
Small Groups
At APC we believe that in order to grow spiritually, you have to be connected in relationship. Other people challenge, encourage, teach, stretch, and love us. In short, they help shape us to look more like Jesus. We encourage everyone to participate in a small group where this transformation can happen!
We would love to have you be a part of our next round of small groups! Winter Small Groups begin meeting the week of January 29 and run through the week of March 18. Most groups meet about three times a month and will be unpacking our sermon series, which is entitled “‘But I thought…’: the messy meeting of faith and life.” In this series we will be looking at some of the places in our lives where our ideas about God and our lived experience appear to be at odds.
