“To watch these kids sign ‘Jesus Loves Me’… it’s just so amazing — because it wouldn’t have happened two years ago.”

We're spotlighting the heart behind Immanuel’s Disability Ministries — including our K Station TLC class and Friends in Faith adult fellowship.

In this short video, Nicole Nellis Cockrell, a TLC Volunteer, shares how God is using TLC to care for families, create safe and joyful spaces, and help every child learn about Jesus.

Watch the video to hear Nicole's story, learn about how the ministry is growing, and find out how you can get involved.

We’re always looking for more volunteers to help us love and serve well — especially in TLC, where the need for adult-to-child care is critical.

What does it mean to be a godly man?

In a culture filled with competing messages about masculinity, God's Word provides a clear and unchanging answer.

Join us on Tuesday, July 14 for a special evening with Dr. Owen Strachan as he explores what biblical manhood looks like and how the gospel shapes men to faithfully lead, serve, and honor Christ in every area of life.

Whether you're a husband, father, student, or simply desire to grow in your walk with the Lord, this event is an opportunity to be encouraged and equipped from Scripture.

What an incredible week at VBS!

This year, we embraced our space theme as kids discovered that Jesus is the Source of life and that God's Word is our ultimate authority.

Here's just a glimpse of what God did:
726 kids attended VBS
458 amazing volunteers served
75+ churches were represented
222 kids were from our own Immanuel Bible Church family
Every child heard the gospel at least 10 times—that's over 7,260 gospel seeds planted in one week!

We've already heard stories of children trusting Christ, meaningful conversations in small groups, and kids growing in confidence as they worshipped, learned, and built new friendships.

To our Kids Ministry team, AVL crew, parents, teen leaders, decorators, prayer warriors, and every volunteer who gave their time and talents—thank you. Your love for God's Word and for the next generation was evident in every lesson, song, craft, game, and conversation.

And to our church family: thank you for your faithful generosity. Your giving makes weeks like this possible, where hundreds of children hear the life-changing truth of the gospel.

We don't yet know all that God will do with the seeds planted this week, but we know He is faithful. We praise Him for all He accomplished and trust Him to continue the work.

To God be the glory!

If you're 50 or older and single, we'd love for you to join us for an evening of fellowship, encouragement, and celebration with our Senior Singles Ministry.

As we conclude our Spiritual Disciplines series, we'll gather for a special evening focused on celebration and thanksgiving. Enjoy dinner, music, teaching, discussion, and meaningful fellowship with others in the IBC family.

Thursday, June 18

Haven't attended the previous sessions? No problem! Each gathering stands on its own, and we'd be delighted to have you join us.

Join us this July for a special five-day study through the book of Joel, where we'll discover how God used an ancient prophet to bring hope, perspective, and truth to his people—and how that message speaks powerfully to us today.
