Christian Education fosters learning about faith, love, and hope – through a Bible-based curriculum that seeks to enrich both our Sunday School
students and their teachers.

Our school year curriculum for children is “Rock Solid.” 7th grade confirmation class meets for a nine-month overview of the Bible. 8th grade confirmation
class meets with a team of teachers, including our pastor, for a study of basic Christian beliefs, Presbyterian history, polity, worship, sacraments,
and mission. At the end of this class the students are given the opportunity to make their public profession of faith and become active members of our
congregation. The confirmation service takes place during our 11:00 a.m. worship in late April every year. High School youth lessons are based on the
book Bible Lessons for Youth.

Sunday School for Adults
September – May
We host two Sunday School classes for adults: Discovery, an in-depth study of the Bible and its meaning, and Living in Faith, a look at selected Biblical
passages and how they apply to everyday life. Discovery meets in the Parlor. Living in Faith meets in Room 109 in the Education Wing.

Adults are invited to join in our intergenerational musical beginning June 7 in the choir room. Have fun and cut loose a little! In July, join the youth to
look at the missionaries of the PCUSA, and in August, join David Huffman for a “Bible 101” class that gives a good introductory overview of the Bible. This
class will be held in Room 109 in the Education Wing.
