Here are some ways that Emmanuel Church comes alongside of the friends and families to grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ and reach out to Rochester and the surrounding communities.

We are pleased to have Emmanuel Child Care Center as one of the essential ministries of Emmanuel Church. Click here to learn more!

Children who love Jesus aren’t just the church of tomorrow, they’re a valuable part of the church of today! Our aim is to come alongside parents, grandparents, and caregivers alike to support and encourage you as you shepherd your child’s heart for the Lord. We welcome your children into the worship service, and want to provide opportunity for them to be involved in the worship as part of the church family. Click Here to see how we do this on a weekly basis. We also hold a one-week VBS in the summer, and schedule events for the whole family throughout the year.

Women’s ministry at Emmanuel Church has many opportunities to serve, grow and encourage one another in our faith. Monthly prayer breakfasts, fellowship times, and our annual Ladies Christmas Tea are just some of the ways that we put that into practice. We invite you to become involved with Women’s Ministry at Emmanuel! Be sure to check out our calendar for upcoming events.

The Men’s ministry of Emmanuel Church seeks to develop strong men of God. Our desire is to bring men of all walks of life together to share friendship and spiritual growth so they may help to transform their families, church and community. We accomplish this by meeting regularly at monthly men’s breakfasts, in homes for accountability and study, and at events like Iron Sharpens Iron. Be sure to check out the calendar for upcoming events.

Some of the ways that we reach out to our community is through an Acts of Kindness ministry (making items to be given out to people in need), community suppers, and our food pantry. Each of these “acts of kindness” are for those in our community who may need a kind word or a kind smile. We expect nothing in return.  We seek to do good as Jesus did (Acts 10:38). Be sure to check out the calendar for upcoming events!

We seek to fulfill the Great Commission globally by following the leading of the Holy Spirit and by linking up with these partners:

• Advent Christian General Conference
• Missionary Air Group
• Missions Door
• Keys Ministries
• New Tribes Missions
• Operation Christmas Child

Prayer is an important aspect of all that we do here in the Emmanuel Family. Even before we gather on Sunday mornings, our Prayer Partners are praying for every aspect of the service and all those involved. It is a unique privilege to lift our requests to the Lord. Please reach out if you have a specific prayer request.
