Asbury's Membership Class

Our goal at Asbury is to grow mature Christians, thus we offer what is called Starting Point. Starting Point classes are offered each quarter and they take a person from membership to maturity in his or her faith. Each class is held on a Sunday afternoon from 2-6pm. If you would like to join Asbury church and grow in your walk of faith by attending one of the Starting Point Classes, call the church office @ 316-942-1491 or email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
