Every church wants to retain those who are new to the church.

POML invests in outreach events & materials to both attract & maintain attention while working diligently to instill a culture of friendliness & connection in our church family. However, retention requires systematic teaching that grounds new people in the Word of God.

We utilize materials that cover Apostolic doctrine thoroughly & represent our church credibly. Thus, the “Elements” New Converts Course is provided to newcomers & new converts with the intent to foster personal study so participants can internalize truth & own it for themselves. Each lesson includes prompts for students to spend time in pre-session study, as well as material for them to fill out during the teaching session.

Here are our details for the “Elements” New Converts Course at POML:

• This class is taught by a qualified minister on staff every Tuesday at 6:30 pm in the Hospitality Room — bring your Bible!
• Four modules with six lessons each (24 lessons)
• Built from the outline & courses taught by General Superintendent David K. Bernard
• Includes a module to help new believers develop life skills
• Features a format to involve newcomers in self-discovery learning from God’s word
