Bright Beginnings Preschool—Much needed quality, Christian teaching is provided to the community.
Church Breakfast—the second Sunday of the month, we gather at 8:30am for breakfast before Sunday School. The classes rotate the preparation of the meal.
Church Library—Christian literature, audio tapes, and videos are made available for the users’ growth, reflection, and reference. This is also a meeting room for various committees.
Deacons’ Fund—financial assistance is available to those in need. This money is administered by the Deacons and accountable only to them for confidentiality.
Fellowship Sports—We support a church league softball team and the team is very active during the summer. This team has encouraged people to attend church through sports fellowship. Hoops for Him is a basketball ministry giving youth an opportunity to play and learn the fundamentals of the game while developing Christ-like attitudes, teaching respect, character, and sportsmanship.
Food Pantry—A community wide service is administered by our church to provide food to those in need. THe pantry covers 600 square feet of space in the CLC and utilizes multiple freezers and refrigerators. We are staffed entirely by volunteers from several different churches in the Bloomfield area. Each December we distribute “White Christmas” food boxes, on a first come, first served basis, to families in need so that they may enjoy a special holiday meal.
Per month, we see an average of 90 different families come through this pantry. Many of these families have an ongoing need and are repeat customers. A household may shop one time per calendar month.
Current hours of operation are 9:00-11:00 AM Tuesday through Thursday mornings and 4:30-6:00 PM Tuesday evenings (for people who work outside the home). We are closed on major Holidays. Hours are always subject to change based on volunteer availability and/or inclement weather, so please call the church office at 812-384-8459 if you have any questions!
Kingdom Kids—A children’s choir for Kindergarten through 6th grade. They practice on Sunday afternoons and sing during service once a month and on special occasions.

Sanctuary Choir—Practices weekly and sings on Sundays from September to May.
Summer Church Camp—We encourage our children to attend Indian Creek Baptist Camp, and supplement the cost. Adults from church also volunteer as camp counselors.
Walk to Emmaus/Chrysalis—The church has endorsed this spiritual retreat as a process to energize and recommit individuals in their walk with Christ. The rededication of individuals has helped spiritual growth in our congregation. We participate in the Hoosier Hills Community.
Worship Team—Guitars, Drums, Clavinova, and a violin lead singing every other Sunday.
Young People Away—An outreach program for support and ministry to young adults that are away from home and the church body perhaps for the first time. College, military, and employment are all things that separate us during these critical years.
