DivorceCare
You are invited to join a comfortable, confidential small group for those who have experienced divorce or are going through separation. This 13-week series will provide you with the tools and biblical principles you need to deal with the pain of the past and show you how to build hope for the future.
Driving With Care
The "Driving With Care" team assists people who need transportation to medical appointments. Sometimes a health crisis places demands on an individual or family that are beyond their resources. Many people who can't drive themselves and don't have family members to help them cannot get to their medical appointments or treatments without outside assistance. This is where University Baptist Church is endeavoring to stand in the gap and help those who need assistance getting to their medical appointments.
