Adult Sunday School

Creating a sense of community and connecting with others is important to grow in your faith, by learning together, worshiping together and serving together. We are not called to worship God in solidarity but in community, as part of a family. These large and small gatherings are where people meet to grow in intimacy with God, develop authentic friendships, and experience life change with others.

Sunday Morning Communities

We need each other for encouragement, growth and accountability. Each Sunday morning study groups gather from 9:45-10:45 a.m. to learn, fellowship, serve and explore their faith together. We hope you will join us for one of the following classes.
