As we have stated in our Church Covenant: We will nurture the children of our congregation in the Faith, teaching them by word and example the Anabaptist heritage. The children meet with the Sunday School classes provided by Christ United Methodist Church. Classes are available for children of all ages including nursery.
The youth meet for a variety of topical studies idenpendently or with the adult Sunday School.
We utilize both topical and Biblical studies from Mennonite Publishing Network including the Good Ground Bible Studies and the Faith & Life Adult Bible Study. Attendees can expect an atmosphere where participants may openly discuss their perspectives and contribute to each other's spiritual development.
For example, in 2007 we completed a study about healthcare access and health promotion as summarized in this document.
In January & February 2008, the Adult Sunday School Class and Youth are studied "Return to the Earth." This project supports Native Americans in burying unidentifiable ancestral remains now scattered across the United States and enables a process of education and reconciliation between Native and Non-Native peoples.
In fall 2008, the adults and youth studied "Get Up Off Your Knees,” a devotional study guide based on the music of U2.
In fall 2009, the Adult and Youth Sunday School groups are studying "National Identity: The promise and peril of living as faithful Christians in America."
A Women’s Bible Study meets regularly. Contact the group for more information.
Persons interested in exploring their spiritual journey are welcome to talk with the pastor.
