Connect at Smithfield Church

Engage and Grow in Faith

Building faith-based relationships is a cornerstone goal at Smithfield Church. Lifelong friendships can begin and grow as God’s word - The Holy Bible - is studied and disciples become increasingly like-minded. Because this study of Holy Scripture is present in most Smithfield Church activities, the invitations for you to join might be overwhelming at first. At Smithfield, we encourage you to relax, try out as many studies and classes as you like, and note how many new friends you make along the way. See you there.

  • Bible Studies

    You’re invited to explore the Bible at Smithfield Church among a group of Believers. Bible studies are organized by adult groups, youth groups, and by women or men’s groups.

Studies are held during Sunday classes, Tuesday or Wednesday classes, on campus, and off campus.

    TGIW - Every Wednesday evening at 5:15, a meal is prepared by teams and served to all who attend in the Family Life Center. It’s known as Thank God It’s Wednesday (TGIW) and it free of charge.
