College and Single Adult Ministries


College and College-Somethings

At Southwest Bible Church, we join with God in calling out a generation of college students to surrender their lives to Jesus Christ. We provide several different avenues to reaching these goals.

Detailed College Ministry Information

F.O.C.U.S.

Contact Mark Heath at 503.327.5308.

Single Adults

Single adults at Southwest are welcome and encouraged to be integrated into any of our Adult Ministries, which have purposefully not discriminated between ages or life situations. The following groups have formed for those seeking additional opportunities for fellowship and service alongside other single, adult Christians.

Living Water (Ages 30+)

The Living Water ministry provides single adults an opportunity to encourage each other in Christian growth through fellowship and social activities, with the purpose of developing and exercising our spiritual gifts and skills to minister to the community for God's glory.

Living Water gathers the 4th Sunday of each month for Lunch Out! To join us, meet in front of the church office after the 11 am service.

The Living Water group gets together for outings and socials at various times each month. For a schedule of events, contact: Tia Bacon at 503.430.7523.
