More about Merge:  A place to belong... 

Thornapple Covenant Church's Merge ministry is for high school grads, college students and grads, singles, married (18 to 30 year olds), and other 20 something adults.

Our goal is to provide a church home where you can worship, serve, be challenged to grow in your faith, and find community - with others in your same stage of life as well as people from all generations.

There are Life Groups for 20's that meet twice a month at different locations. (Life Groups are small groups of people that meet for Bible study and to encourage each other spiritually.) Refer to the "Life Group" section of the website for more information on Life Groups. If you'd like to join a group, Contact Marny Danz at mdanz@thornapple.org if you are interested in knowing more or joining a Life Group at Thornapple.
