An intergenerational Sunday School class—heavier on the 50+ side, but delightfully growing in younger members. We enjoy lively discussion based on Bible-based lessons. While seeking to deepen our knowledge of Scripture, our goal is application to our Christian walk. We value Christian fellowship and humor; we practice both regularly, with quarterly Sunday brunches, an annual Christmas party, and additional fellowship gatherings. Our class participates in and financially supports numerous outreach efforts, including Bean Elementary, St. Benedict’s, Family Promise, the CDC, Disciples Beans, and missions. We believe in giving generously!

Meeting place:

If you are desiring a smaller, more intimate class that is authentic, honest and raw feelings are sometimes shared, please join us!
