Children's Sunday School Returns on Rally Day, September 8, 2024!
Pre-K to Grades 5 will meet in Room 106. This youth class will use the David C. Cooke curriculum, giving them tools to build a relationship with God and explore their faith using fun, multi-sensory learning through carefully selected Bible stories, hands-on activities, discussion and songs.
Middle and High School: Sixth through twelfth graders will meet in Room 105 and will use a variety of resources that help teens to understand the Bible and navigate through real life challenges in their everyday life. The class encourages students to ask questions and explore their faith in a deeper way. Dialogue each week between the students is rich and meaningful. Students come out of the class with thought-provoking questions to ask their families at home.
Adult Sunday School
Women's Class: Led by Pat King in Room 114, this class follows the Cokesbury Adult Bible Study series. Each quarter (fall, winter, spring, summer) contains 13 lessons exploring Biblical messages and how to apply them to daily life by focusing on personal, family, church, and community concerns. Beginning on Rally Day, this fall the Bible lessons will follow the theme "Claiming Identity." They unpack and explore the concept of identity by examining the life and experiences of Esther, the factors that shape our identity and how we find and claim our identity in Christ.
Men's Class: Under the direction of Ken McKinley in Room 112, this class will delve into "Our Daily Bread" devotionals and related scripture and Bible study. Through this study men will grow in their relationship with God and with each other, while discussing ways to apply scripture to daily life.
Faithbuilders: From January 12th through February 16, 2025, join Gail Schadler in Room 109, for her updated Angel class entitled, "God's Second Family: A Study of Angels in the Bible." Through lecture, discussion, and videos, hear and see what the Bible says about the creation, characteristics, functions and powers of angels. Explore the differences between elect and fallen angels and demons. Learn about the relationships angels had and have with Jesus and with us. And find out more about the spiritual warfare going on all around us and how to be on the winning side!
