Adult Faith Formation
Fall Sunday Morning Adult Faith Formation is on Zoom from 10:30am-11:30am. We have adult education planned for each week this fall, with five different classes through the end of the calendar year.
Class 5: Comparing the Gospel: Advent Bible Study
November 29-December 20
What do each of the Gospels say about Jesus’ birth? As we prepare for Christmas, what does the Bible say about it? Over the four weeks of Advent, we will dive into the four Gospels – one each week – and what the writers chose to focus on and their description of Jesus’ birth and early life.
Future classes will be announced in the newsletter and our website! The Zoom link will be available via the newsletter. Contact Pastor Will for more information.

September 13, 20, and October 4
Have you ever wondered why we read certain Scripture on Sunday morning in worship, how this is chosen, and how it related to the seasons of the Church year? Join us on September 13, 20, and October 4 as Pastor Will leads a study delving into the Revised Common Lectionary. We’ll explore what the Revised Common Lectionary is, who put it together and why, what is included in it, what is not, and what that means for who we are as the Church.
