Nursery
We have a crib room for infants through age two with paid staff and a volunteer. Come and see this attractive, efficient space. It’s available at 10am during the Sunday School hour and at 11am for the Praise and Worship Service. NOTE: Our paid and volunteer staff at all levels are trained and qualified within the Safe Sanctuary guidelines of the United Methodist Church.
Preschool
As babies become toddlers, we welcome them to their own class at 10am with short Bible stories, games, and simple crafts. Most kids stay here until age 5. A trained volunteer teaches this class.
Elementary
Generally children Kindergarten age through fifth grade come to this class. The students memorize bible verses, read Bible stories, and work on projects. The Children’s Coordinator teaches this class at 10 am with a rotation of volunteers. During the 11am Praise and Worship Service, children of this age group stay in the sanctuary for part of the service and come for Children’s Church in the Fellowship Hall for the remainder of worship.
Youth
Our students from sixth grade up meet in a conversational area with media equipment to study God’s word and to plan their next activities. Our Youth Coordinators teach this class along with volunteers.
Young Adults
This Sunday School class is for adults typically ages 18- 30. We are into God’s word to help us understand what plans He has for our finances, relationships, friendships, and our accountability as young adults. Outside of Sunday School, we have a chance to meet monthly for a fun gathering to build our relationships with the groups as well as community outreach.
Agape Class
This Sunday School class is for adults. Our current study series is from the Standard Lesson Quarterly, The Righteous Reign of God. We focus on relating Scripture to real life and spiritual practices such as forgiveness and hope.
Connections Class
Connections is a multi-generational group whose focus is on exegetical studies as well as topical studies of current events and the relevance of Scripture to our daily lives. Recent studies have included the Gospel of John, The Miracles of Elisha, and our upcoming study is The Next 15 Prophecies. The class has occasional ‘going deeper’ sessions to allow class members to meet away from church for food, fellowship, and extended teaching/discussion on the current class study.
Seekers Class
We “seek” to grow as Christians to better represent Jesus in our daily lives. The class members are ages 50+, sharing our experiences as we study the Bible and related materials. We enjoy get-togethers for food and fellowship and we also participate in mission projects, such as providing Christmas gifts for needy families and doing painting and cleanup as needed locally.
Pathfinders Class
This is an adult Sunday School class typically for ages 30 to 55, all ages are welcome. We are a group of friends on our way to the path of understanding God’s word!
