Christian Education

Our lives are ever changing because God is always acting to help us become more than we already are. We seek to foster such growth by offering a variety of faith-forming experiences.

Sunday Morning Christian Education Classes Starting in the Fall

  • “Sunday’s Cool” for pre-K through 6th grade offering a curriculum based on the Bible readings used at worship that Sunday.
  • Confirmation Class for 7th and 8th graders uses the “Here We Stand” curriculum from Augsburg Fortress to help prepare our youth to affirm their baptismal faith through the rite of Confirmation.
  • High School Class utilizes “re:form,” a youth faith formation series from Augsburg Fortress, and a book called Can I Ask That?, both of which help youth to engage in conversations that connect events in their daily lives to their faith.
  • Adult Class  is for adults interested in lively Bible study or topical book study.
  • “Faith Matters” Class  is for adults interested in discussing their faith and how it affects issues of daily life.
  • “Divine Drama” Class provides adults an in-depth study and understanding of the Bible.
