Our Ministries
We are called to serve God, and support, encourage, and serve each other and our community.
We are all called to serve in ministry, each in our own way, using the gifts and talents that God has given us.
As we humbly serve, we are blessed.

Ministries at Kimball are conceived and led by our members. Involvement in ministry - serving God and others - is important for our spiritual growth. We encourage every member - and those that aren’t even members yet - to listen to the Spirit and explore where they are called to serve God, the church, and others.

At Kimball Church we seek to live and practice the Marks of Discipleship. Six areas of life are reflected in the Marks of Discipleship. They demonstrate how a person is to live out faith in Jesus Christ in that specific part of life. Living out these six areas of discipleship strengthens the understanding of God's love for humankind and helps you discern God's purpose for your life.
Join us in living the Marks of Discipleship.
