ADULT SUNDAY School

For summer 2011, we have some exciting options for adult Sunday school. Below you will find details on what each existing class will be doing this summer. In addition, during July and August, we will offer a Summer Elective Course, which will get back to basics with the Ten Commandments and then a short course on Christian Care Giving led by our Stephen Ministers. Normal schedule of classes resumes with the Christian Education Kick-Off and Pancake Breakfast on September 11, 2012.
