VENTURE
YOUNG ADULT MINISTRIES
Venture
The purpose of Venture is to establish a community of young adults, ages 22–30, who desire to mature in faith and be transformed into the image of Christ. This community is created through the regular Venture Deep Small Groups, monthly Venture Together Fun Events, and our Venture Out Evangelism & Service events. Venture provides a connection to the larger church community by engaging its members in multi-generational service and fellowship.
Venture Community Groups
Monday Women's Group
The Book of 2 Kings
Ladies! You are invited to join us for the Venture Monday Women’s Group, meeting Mondays from 6:30–8:30 PM at the Ross Home in Mechanicsburg. Together, we’ll be walking through the book of 2 Kings, where we will look at the life of Solomon, the kings, the prophets, and the exile of Israel.
This is a powerful story of leadership, wisdom, and the challenges of staying faithful to God in a world full of distractions. As young adults navigating decisions, ambitions, and relationships, 2 Kings offers real-life lessons in integrity, trust, and the foundation we choose to build our lives on. This is a great opportunity to grow in faith and community with other women as they pursue God’s best.

Wonderfully Made by Allie Marie Smith
Join us for the Monday Women's Venture Group at Living Water, meeting Mondays from 6:30–8:30 PM in the Main Building Upper Lobby. Together we’ll walk through Wonderfully Made by Allie Marie Smith, a study that speaks to the deep questions of worth, purpose, and identity that so many women face. Through honest conversation and God’s truth, we’ll discover that we are not defined by our struggles or achievements but by the One who lovingly created us. Come connect, be encouraged, and grow in the abundant life God has made you for.

Wednesday Men's Group
The Gospel of Luke
Young Adult Men, ages 22-30, are invited to join us for the Venture Wednesday Men’s Group, studying the Gospel of Luke. Following Jesus shapes every part of who we are, including how we live, lead, and love. This men’s young adult Bible study walks through the Gospel of Luke, inviting us to encounter Jesus as He truly is and respond with lives of faithful obedience.
Together, we’ll explore Luke’s clear, orderly account of Christ’s life, teachings, compassion, and sacrifice, and consider what it means to follow Him in everyday adult life, our relationships, work, decisions, and character. This study is a space to grow in truth, wrestle honestly with Scripture, and encourage one another to become people who reflect the grace, humility, and courage of Jesus.

Wednesday Co-ed Group
The Practicing the Way Course
The Venture Wednesday Co-ed Group meets Wednesdays from 7:00–9:00 PM at the Alrutz Home in Linglestown. This semester, ​we’re excited to participate in a study called Practicing the Way. This is an 8-session journey designed to help you build a deeper, more intentional life with Jesus.
This course is all about learning what it truly means to follow Jesus in the middle of our busy, distracted, and often overwhelming world. Together, we’ll explore how to slow down, be formed spiritually, and live with purpose in a culture that constantly pulls us in other directions. Come ready to learn, be challenged, and grow alongside others walking the same path.
