Christian Education

Our Sunday morning education time begins at 10:45 each week.

The continuing education of our children and adults is a cornerstone of our faith. Children are encouraged to participate in our worship service. A part of the service is a special sermon for them that reflects the worship theme. After the Children’s Sermon, kids have the option of staying with their parents or going to the nursery.

After our worship, we have fellowship time and then our Sunday morning education hour begins. Early childhood classes combine several ages into a worship center, where each child can use a variety of physical activities to understand and recreate bible stories and learn about the parts of worship.

Older children meet with their peers and share opportunities to learn about our faith and develop the own spiritual muscles.

We offer a variety of adult classes, which focus on subjects ranging from book reviews to Bible study to discussions on contemporary issues. Subjects and classes change every few weeks to provide the option of moving to a class that fits your journey of faith. Recent programs include:

• New ventures in worship – How art and creativity can engage worshippers
• Evolution and Creationism – Can they co-exist?
• Digging deeper into today’s sermon

Two women’s Bible study groups, called Circles meet monthly, one in the morning and one in the evening. The Morning Circle meets at 10 a.m. on the second Wednesday of the month. The Rose Circle meets at 7:00 p.m. on the first Wednesday of the month.

Each year, we have a Vacation Bible School with our UCC Church neighbor across the street. VBS offers the children from our churches and neighborhood for fun, fellowship and learning.

Each December, we present a live Nativity on West Road for our neighbors and friends to enjoy. Adults and children participate together in this special and spiritual event.
