The Faith Explorers Class

Faith Explorers Class
Faith Explorers is a discussion-oriented class, primarily composed of parents (both couples and single parents) of young children to preteens.  The class has a particular interest in studies which consider current world events and how we can live out our faith in the midst of society today. Members are active in mission and offer fellowship gatherings throughout the year. Faith Explorers is eager to receive visitors each week.

Faith Weavers Class
This class uses a variety of different curriculum to bring biblical teachings to daily life application.  A recent study has focused on relating the Bible to current events in our world.    The class uses a lesson format that encourages discussion.   Members are primarily couples with elementary age children.  Recent fellowship activities include a Back to School Brunch.  Class members are active in church-wide missions activities.  For example, the class has a long history of supporting the Christmas Connection, a ministry in which church families are linked with families in need at Christmas.

The Genesis Class

Genesis Class
The Genesis class explores books of the Bible, Biblical themes (prayer, the Holy Spirit), and contemporary books such as What’s So Amazing about Grace?   The group enjoys exploring new depths and expressions of their spirituality.  Recent activities include visiting the Botanical Gardens and Biblical Arts Museum.  Class members actively attend a wide variety of church events.  Recent  missions activities include supplying food for Samaritan Inn (shelter for homeless persons) and  Project Transformation (an urban children’s ministry).  Many members of the class have adult age children.

The Seekers Class

Seekers Class
The Seekers class explores topics based on the Bible.  Studies are usually single lessons or lessons over a short time span.  Tom Fowler often teaches the class.  Class membership includes singles and couples of varied ages.  Many of the class members are “empty nesters.”  Some of the class members are retired from work, but active in life.  The class often gathers for social activities like eating out on a weekend night or attending a Ranger game.  The class participates in a number of mission activities, including support of health ministries in Honduras.

 
The Wesley Class

Wesley Class
The Wesley Class typically uses a book of the Bible or a Christian Book to create a series of lessons over multiple weeks.  Several class members take turns leading the class.   This is a class that values discussion of topics.  Those present are often asked to share their thoughts about a Bible passage or an author’s statements.  The class includes both couples and singles.  Many class members have young children or elementary age children.  Some of the class traditions include leading the church's annual Charity Golf Tournament and providing support to an impoverished family at Christmas.  They recently began a tradition of gathering on the third Sunday of the month for a meal.
