LIFESTYLE SCHOOL: COMMITMENTS
September 22, 2026 - MAY 11, 2027
ELS is designed to be a robust training experience that fits into the schedule of the everyday believer. Please review the commitments below to get a better picture of the EVERYDAY Lifestyle School.
TUESDAY NIGHT CLASS (6-9 PM)
ELS meets in the Next Gen Auditorium at EVERYDAY every week from 6-9 PM. These nights will consist of teaching, discussion, worship, and ministry.
PRAYER ROOM (2 hours per week)
Students will spend two hours a week in the Prayer Room attending Corporate Sets. Students can choose between sets on Tuesdays from 4-6 PM and/or Wednesdays from 8-10 PM!
SUNDAYS
All ELS students serve on a team at EVERYDAY! For the majority of students, that means a Sunday commitment with either EVERYDAY KIDS, the hospitality team, or one of our worship/production teams. For more information on serving, visit our Join a Team page.
RETREATS / WEEKENDS
-
To kick off the school year, all students and staff will spend a Saturday together at EVERYDAY sharing stories, worshipping together, and getting to know one another.
Commitment is on Saturday, September 26th from 9 AM - 8 PM.
-
Our only overnight commitment, this two-day retreat will explore the character and nature of God. This retreat will be held at Mt. Olivet Conference and Retreat Center.
Our schedule will allow for a full workday on Friday and attendance at Awakening Services on Sunday.
-
An all-day gathering to allow the Lord to search us and know us, leading us to truth and freedom. We will take our time, letting Holy Spirit lead and love our souls in a place of prayer.
This will be a day trip, beginning at 9 AM and completing at 5 PM.
-
Though service opportunities and evangelism will be encouraged throughout, an all-day community outreach event will take place on a Saturday in April (exact details TBD).
SERVING
When unique serving opportunities arise for large events or initiatives at EVERYDAY, ELS students will roll up their sleeves to help make them happen! Serving opportunities will be presented at least a month in advance.
