Christian discipleship is a life-long process for all Christians. Our Christian education ministry seeks to provide enriching opportunities for the strengthen of our faith. To that end, we offer several adult Sunday School classes, which meet Sunday mornings from 9:45 to 10:40 am as well as other events throughout the year. Members and visitors are welcome to any of these events.
FPC Adult Sunday School
The Word – Youngish Adults:
Location: The Youngish Adults Room on the 2nd floor of the Education Building. Drop off your children off at the nursery or Sunday School and join us for coffee!
Current Study: Each week the group will choose a word or theme and explore its significance throughout the Bible. The class requires no preparation and encourages “drop in” participation.
Senior Men
Location: Parlor in the Fellowship Hall
Current Study: The Class is a bible study discussion considering the application of scripture to our lives. The topics come from prior discussions and life experiences. Respect for other viewpoints and consideration of others is essential. Preparation and regular attendance are helpful, but nor required. The class is led by Hale Freeland.
Men’s Class II
