Practicing
a vibrant faith in the real world requires sound preparation and
instruction. Looking into our classrooms at our students and teachers,
it is obvious that our people realize that Christian Education isn't
just for kids, it's for everyone! Whether midweek, on Wednesday morning
and evening, or on Sundays prior to worship, we have a place where you
or your children can explore your faith and increase your understanding
of God's Word in the world.
Sunday School
Every Sunday during the school year (September to May), from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m., we host age appropriate Sunday School for kindergardeners through high school age.
It is the expectation of the Board of Christian Education that each student, as is age-appropriate, will:
Gain Biblical familiarity
Encounter teachings consistent with the Gospel
Gain an understanding of the classic principles of faith and discipleship
Understand the practice of rites
Experience through their studies empowerment for daily living
Adult Bible Study
We have many opportunities for adults to
build scriptural and spiritual awareness and faith.
On Wednesday mornings at
10 a.m. and Wednesday evenings at 7:30 p.m. we have small group meetings that
offer easy access to the exciting process of reading God's Word. While
both groups are facilitated by experienced Christians, neither requires
any prior Bible study for complete and happy participation.
On Sunday
mornings at 10 a.m., we have a vibrant class that blends traditional interpretation with
innovative application. Within this conversational context, honest
dialogue is encouraged, with little emphasis on dry lecture.
You do not need to be a member of our church to participate in any of our classes. All are welcome.
