Learning Together​

For Children

Christian Education is scheduled for children from October to May. (But it really goes on all year, and most of it happens outside of church, at home and on the playground and in the supermarkets and stores!).  Children begin education to Christ in church as early in life as their parents desire. 

Our monthly support at church for entering into the faith for the next generation includes:
  • Messy Church, an intergenerational, Scriptural, lively and relaxed evening of art, crafts, laughter and learning (concluding with a good meal for the family!) takes place in the Great Hall on the third Friday of each month from October to May

​The active participation of parents and grandparents in making all this good happen is most warmly encouraged and accepted.  Call the Church Office to see how you can help (and gain much in the effort).
​

For Tweens & Teens

Our parish youth group meets as announced beginning in September for fun, service, and learning. If you are from 12 to 21 years of age, you'll love this group. For more information, contact the Parish Office!
​

For Adults of all Ages

Throughout the year opportunities for learning in Scripture, Church tradition, and spirituality are offered.  Upcoming educational series are advertised in the weekly Parish News and in the Friday e-newsletter, as well as on the bulletin board in the Great Hall. Parishioners and friends are always welcome!
