Sunday school for 6th-12th grade: We are thrilled to offer the new Colaborate Bible Study curriculum for our 6th-12th grade students.

We have purchased the entire 30-week curriculum which we will supplement with other learning activities throughout the year. Sunday school begins on September 17 at 9:15 a.m..
Adult Bible Study: Think everyone at church knows the Bible better than you do? Don’t know Jerubbaal from Zerubbabel? Have you tried to read the Bible, only to get bogged down in the begats? Starting September 17 at 9:15 a.m., Pastor Erica will lead a weekly class with the goal of teaching participants how to think theologically and study the Bible effectively without a lot of dogma or doctrine! At our first meeting, we will discuss a learning based on attendees’ interests, questions, and hopes for this year’s learning. And, get ready to test your Biblical literacy with a round of Bible Jeopardy!
Our Bible School this year will again be a joint venture with Faith United and boy, are we excited about this one. We will be taking the students on a 4 Journey to Bethlehem. While there they will visit with the “main players” in the Christmas story – angels, shepherds, Mary & Joseph, etc. Come and experience the sights and sounds of Bethlehem and see why there way indeed – No Room at the Inn. Meet and learn from various shopkeepers who would have had worked in the bustling town of Bethlehem. Learn from the Village Baker, Metal Worker, Scribe (gotta get that census done) , Carpenter, InnKeeper, Pottery, Musical Instrument maker, Star Gazer,and many more.
Bible School will begin each evening in the sanctuary at 6 pm with music and a short introduction to the night’s activities. We will conclude each evening back in the “town square” at 7:45 pm. Children age 3 through those who have finished grade 5 are welcome on our journey. There is no cost to attend Bible School and pre-registration is not required – but it is helpful. A joint worship service with Faith United will bring our week to a close on Sunday, July 23rd. You can register either via e-mail ([email protected]) or by phone at 276-3613.
A light supper will be served to the children attending VBS and the teachers at 5:30 pm for those that wish to eat together as a group before heading into Bethlehem
