Christian Education for Adults, Young Adults and Youth.

We meet each Sunday morning at 9:30 am in the Chapel. This group is open to adults and post-confirmation young adults and youth. Its focus is on current issues which challege Christians to be faithful and respond in meaningful ways. We provide various perspectives on issues from newspapers, periodcals and informed speakers.

Topics for the next week are printed in the Sunday bulletins and announced in E.T. (our Every Tuesday e-mail newsletter).

Seasonal studies are also provided during Advent and Lenten seasons.
