Please take a minute to scroll through and get more information about all of the ministries at Real Life Church and consider how you might get involved! We would love to have you join us on the journey!

The Men’s Ministry of Real LIfe Galt is designed to get men connected to God in a powerful and meaningful relationship. It will help you grow in God’s purpose and plan for your life as well as learn everyday skills on how to live life to the fullest. We desire to see you use the gifts God has placed in you to bless those around you and your community, to establish a network of strong, devoted Christian men to have fun with, enjoy life with, and grow with. Our primary goal is to draw men closer to God by creating a welcoming atmosphere. To get plugged in to the Men's Ministry, please contact Pastor Jeff McEachron at 209.327.0616 or email him at jeffm@rlcgalt.com.

The Women’s Ministry provides relevant teaching, growth in your spiritual gifts, fellowship with other women, healing, deliverance, and discipleship. The women’s ministry caters to women of all ages and stages of life. Whether you are single, married, a mother or a single mom, the women’s ministry wants to see you growing in Christ and building relationships. To get involved with our Women's Ministry, please contact Cheryl McEachron at 209-745-5735 or email her at cherylm@rlcgalt.com.

Our women's Bible studies are held on Tuesdays, one at 10:00 am and another at 7:00 pm, both held at the home of Cheryl McEachron (687 Arlene Ct).

We also regularly get together for Girlfriend Connections, where we enjoy food, fellowship, and chocolate! Also, each September, our women get away to Woodleaf Conference Center for Girlfriend Conference.

At Real Life Church of Galt, children are a top priority! We believe children are the future, and training them young is vital. That's why we offer two classes each Sunday morning for children to be taught Biblical principles. We have a Nursery/Toddler/Preschool class, as well as a class for Kindergarten through 5th grade. Each summer, our children enjoy Vacation Bible School and getting away to Kids' Camp. Your children will love their time at Hilltop Kids!

At Stadium Youth Ministries, we engage with our students to meet them right where they are on their journey. We encourage them to become rooted in their foundation with Christ while seeking the plan He has for their lives. We empower this generation to live bold and unashamed of the Gospel and to spread the love of Jesus Christ.

We know God has incredible plans for this City and we want you to connect up with us on the journey. Join us Sunday Nights at 6:30 pm.

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2

God’s people are designed for community, and we want to help you get connected. Whether you’re new to your relationship with Christ, or a seasoned believer, Real Life Church has the small group for you! Lots of different options are available, and new groups are always being added. Come see what Community can do for you!

Empty nesters & seniors are full of wisdom and are valuable to us, and we belive they deserve to have a life full of honor and respect. The Finishing Well Ministry intends to help empty-nesters and seniors find their place in ministry, reach out to the senior citizens in our community, visit shut-ins, and provide rides to church for those who need it. For more information about Finishing Well Ministry, please contact Howard & Karen Sims at 916-226-6929 or email her at karens@rlcgalt.com.

Pastoral Care is about taking care of the needs of the body of believers in this church, with a focus on emotional support and spiritual care. What more do we need in this world than a personal touch and a family of those that walk along with you on this journey called life?

Do you need some pastoral care? What about prayer?

The Worship and Creative Arts Department of Real Life Galt consists of several areas that function separately but work together in unity and flow. We want to see God's spirit move - to touch and change people's hearts. So we combine our talents, gifts, time, and energy to nurture an atmosphere that allows people to experience Him and connect with Him. God continues to bring us people of all ages who are very gifted and talented in the areas of music, sound, media, visual arts, dramatic presentation, and marketing/advertising. Anyone interested in getting involved with any of the ministries listed below may contact Brandon Marek at brandonm@rlcgalt.com. We welcome new people all the time!

MUSIC

Our style of worship can be best categorized as a synthesis of contemporary and gospel/urban music. We love to put our unique spin on current worship music. We even like to infuse original works. We are working towards recruiting and training up enough worship team members to rotate week to week. If you would like to audition for the Mars Hill Worship Team, please contact Brandon Marek at brandonm@rlcgalt.com.

SOUND

The sound team is truly the backbone of our mobility since all of them also participate in setting up and tearing down our equipment each week as a mobile church. However, their primary gift is to mix and record for each worship service. We are truly thankful for their hard work and dedication!

MEDIA AND VISUAL ARTS

The media team helps make it easier for the congregation to follow in worship by putting together the projected images and lyrics for the service. Throughout the week, this team helps create the visual images and design projects that are seen in our web site, bulletin, screens, and other printed materials.

DRAMATIC ARTS

Currently, this area of ministry is driven by volunteers who exhibit a gift in drama and dance. These performances can be enjoyed during offering times and seasonal events.

MARKETING & ADVERTISING

We view this area as outreach that is always changing to help fit the needs of our community. As a newer church, we are striving to utilize our talented staff, skilled volunteers and limited resources to develop this area.

Our ushers and greeters are the first people you see when you arrive at Real Life Galt. Their main mission is to make you feel welcome and guide you through your Sunday morning experience at our church. If you are interested in getting involved with the Welcome Ministry, please contact Cathy Wise at 916-847-8701 or email her at cathyw@rlcgalt.com.

For the Broken wants to shed light on and help people who suffer with Depression, Addiction, Self-Injury, Eating Disorders and other hard hitting issues. Throughout the year we will be going out in the community doing small events to raise funds and help people who are hurting right now. We make the first connection with a hurting community, and through positive resources we help them find healing.

Every September we want to have a Community Concert to share with all the surrounding communities what we are about. We also host events (Battle of the Bands, Roadshows, Movie Nights, etc.) throughout the year to raise funds and give the community a positive way to have a good time.

Our Volunteers get Crisis training and it is also offered to those who want to help others in a healthy way. (Training classes will be announced soon)

If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel. You may feel isolated and have many questions about things you’ve never faced before. GriefShare is a structured program that meets weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding your life. A new session will be starting soon and we would encourage you to contact our facilitator, Sherri Sumstine at (209) 610-5077 to get more details on when the next session will get started or if you need assistance to process the loss of a loved one. Remember, we are here for you!

If you are College/Career Age, please join us on January 30th, 7 p.m. over at the McEachron home (687 Arlene Ct. in Galt) as we kick-off our new life group. It's going to be a great time to meet new friends, grow in your faith and discover who you really are. We hope to see you there!
