The teach team is entrusted with the task of deepening each Faith member's commitment to discipleship and enhancing their personal walk with the Lord.
The Discipleship Process at Faith At Faith Lutheran Church we believe that discipleship is becoming more and more intimate with God as we become more and more like Jesus. In discipleship we devote ourselves to becoming what God has in mind for us to be and do. This is a life long process that begins in our baptism and ends in our death. At Faith Lutheran Church we believe that there are five main parts to this discipleship process: - Faith Explorations
- Small Group
- Weekly Worship
- Personal Spiritual Disciplines
- Individual Choices: Books, Magazines, Events, Groups and Classes
For more information or to check dates and times please call the church office at 217-522-7331.

An increasing commitment to Christ and his church is asked for at the conclusions of each course.
