Christian Education

Join a class 

  • Learn the Bible 

  • Accept God’s Grace 

  • Grow in Christian Faith 

  • Become Part of a Christian Community 

  • Answer God’s Call to Christian Living

    Living a Christian life does not come automatically.
    It comes through study, worship, and learning together.  
    Sunday school is a beginning for children and youth, and essential for growth for adults! 
    The lessons of Christian education make it possible for us to practice love
    and to live as children of God.
