ADULT MINISTRY
Deermeadows Adult Ministry’s purpose is to partner with adults in Jacksonville on a discipleship process to grow closer to Jesus. We offer opportunities and tools to build relationships, study scripture, and learn to live the way Jesus did which includes a life of generosity and service. We offer a variety of group environments to fuel spiritual growth along with special training events, plus fun social events to provide opportunities for connecting relationally.
