Kids Club is a fun and engaging opportunity for kids in kindergarten through 8th grade to grow in their faith and build friendships. Kids Club meets on Wednesday nights during the school year and is designed to help kids learn about God in an exciting and meaningful way. A typical Kids Club night includes worship, a large-group Bible lesson, Scripture memorization, and a variety of activities and games. Each part of the evening is planned to help kids understand God’s Word while having fun in a safe and encouraging environment. If you’re interested in having your child participate—or if you’d like to serve as part of the Kids Club team—we’d love to hear from you. Please contact us by email or reach out through our Facebook page for more information.

Our Youth Group exists to provide a safe and welcoming space where students can build community with their peers and grow in their faith. We gather weekly on Wednesday nights at 6:30 PM in our Youth Room for Bible study and fellowship. A typical Wednesday night includes worship, devotions, Bible study, an activity, and refreshments—creating a relaxed environment where students can learn, ask questions, and have fun together. In addition to our weekly gatherings, we also meet regularly on Sunday evenings for social events focused on building strong and meaningful relationships. One of the highlights of the year is our annual summer mission trip. Over the years, our youth have had the opportunity to serve in places such as the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Mexico, Montana, New Orleans, Oklahoma City, and Columbus, Ohio. If you are interested in learning more about our Youth Group or have any questions, please contact our Youth Pastor, Eric Miller, at 574-849-6105.

Our Men’s and Women’s Bible Studies are a great opportunity to grow in faith, build relationships, and encourage one another in a relaxed and welcoming setting. These groups typically meet once a month on Saturday mornings and include time for breakfast, coffee, fellowship, teaching, and meaningful discussion. You do not need to be a member of Providence to participate—everyone is welcome. Whether you’re looking to connect with others, dive deeper into Scripture, or simply enjoy good conversation over a meal, we’d love for you to join us. If you’re interested in the Women’s Bible Study or would like more information, please contact Amanda Swartzentruber at 812-444-9813. For questions about the Men’s Bible Study (Stand Firm), contact Josh Swartzentruber at 812-787-1500. We hope you’ll consider joining us at an upcoming gathering!

The Discipleship Training Program (DTP) at Providence is a two-year course designed to equip individuals with a deeper understanding of God’s Word. The program meets on Saturday mornings and is focused on helping participants grow in biblical knowledge, discernment, and confidence in Scripture. In Genesis 3, Satan’s first recorded words to Eve were, “Did God really say…?” That same question continues to challenge believers today. One of our greatest defenses against this tactic is the same one Jesus used when He was tempted—to know and stand firmly on the truth of God’s Word. That conviction is the foundation of DTP. DTP is currently in its seventh cycle, and over 30 men from our congregation have completed the program. Graduates are actively applying what they’ve learned in their homes, workplaces, and through service at Providence. If you’re interested in joining the next DTP class beginning in 2026, or if you’d like more information, please contact one of our course instructors: Alex Knepp at alex.knepp@germanamerican.com or Nate Raber at Nate.raber@gmail.com.

Small Groups at Providence are designed to help people build meaningful relationships and grow together in their faith. These groups meet once a month on Sundays and provide a relaxed setting for connection, discussion, and encouragement.

Each group offers a welcoming environment where everyone can participate and feel at home.

Registration opens in April, so mark your calendars and get ready for an unforgettable adventure!
