Adult MINISTRY





Growing in Grace and Knowledge

The goal of our Adult Ministry programs is bringing people together so they may grow in their knowledge of Jesus Christ, enjoy fellowship, and be ambassadors of God's love among our members and in the community.


We invite you to join one of our Adult Ministry programs! Contact our church office at 705-743-4904 for more information.

  • Mary and Martha (Women's group for all ages)

    Mary and Martha are two women in the Gospels who have different personalities but one devotion to Jesus. All women are welcome to participate in this group that focuses on Bible study and fellowship. Group outings and social events are also on the agenda! This group meets in Cephas Church every other Tuesday @ 9:30 am.


    Mary & Martha will resume in September 2023. Check this page in August for the start date.

  • Young@Heart Ministry for Retirees

    Retirees of every age are invited to join our Young@Heart for fellowship, discussion on topics of interest, guest speakers, and special outings. This group meets in the Fellowship Hall at Cephas Church where coffee and goodies are generously served. This is a joint program with Living Hope Church. Young@Heart meets on the first Thursday of each month @ 10 am.

  • Breakfast Social at Smitty's

    All ladies and men are invited to enjoy breakfast on the first Monday of every month at Smitty's restaurant on George Street. The focus of this time is to experience fellowship and friendship with each other. All ages are welcome!


    This group gathers at Smitty's on the first Monday of each month @ 9 am.

  • Members of One Body

    Cephas Church is a community of believers who show God's love to one another. This is done through hosting Coffee Socials after the worship service each week, supporting new moms and members in the hospital through a Care Network, and upholding those with concerns and prayer requests in a Prayer Network.


    If you feel called to help out in a ministry supporting our church members, contact the church office at 705-743-4904.

Serving our Community

Cephas Church reaches out with God's love in Peterborough:

  • Our parking lot, by arrangement, is made available during the week to community groups wanting to access the Kinsman Park, such as a seniors slow-pitch team, a disabilities group, and a kids optometric group. We are happy to share our parking lot during the week with community groups.  
  • We have members actively involved in the Re-Source Thrift Store, which raises money to support Christian education and various other local causes.
  • Our church cares about the people in our community who are marginalized, and supports The Good Neighbours Care Centre with donations of food and volunteer time. 
  • Along with our sister church Living Hope, we support the following local ministries: Brock Mission, Peterborough Pregnancy Support Services, Cameron House, Y.E.S. Youth Shelter and Rhema Christian School.
