Adult Sunday School Classes

 

Adult Sunday School classes at First Church are intended to give members a chance to affiliate with a small group for learning, mutual support, and service to the church and community.  Each class has a different size, character, and learning style!

 

3 NEW ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASSES BEGIN SEPTEMBER 13:

  • For parents of elementary-school-aged children, 9:45 am, Room 212
  • For single adults, ages 35-45, 9:45 am, Room 221
  • For young professionals, ages 20-35, 11 am, Room 218
If you fit one of these descriptions and would like a Sunday School class made up of people on your same stretch of the road, please join us!

 

New Sunday School classes aimed at other demographic groups will be started throughout 2009-2010; keep checking this page for news of new Sunday School classes.

 

Below you'll find a listing and description of the current adult Sunday School classes available at each hour. If you're looking for a group to join for learning, making bonds of friendship and support, and mutual service, consider joining one of these classes. If you're not ready to make that commitment, you're always welcome "just to visit," too!  For more information on specific clases, contact Minister With Adults Mark Lucke.
