Class Schedules
The following is a list of study and fellowship schedules for Adult Small Groups and Sunday School classes.
Discovery
Room 36
In November we will begin a 6-week study of Luke: Jesus and the Outsiders, Outcasts, and Outlaws by Adam Hamilton. Through Luke’s stories we find Jesus’ care and compassions for all as he welcomes sinners and outcasts – those who were considered unimportant – and hear a hopeful and inspiring word for our lives today. Each session deals with a different topic and may be attended individually.

It will forever change the way you view your parents, peers, coworkers, and children, no matter which generation you call your own.
