Sunday School

Last year, we introduced the Follow Me curriculum. This curriculum is based on practices Jesus did and taught us to do as faithful followers. Written for people of all ages, who wish to live out their faith, this curriculum examines where these practices are found in the Bible and how they have been used in the Christian faith, then and now. There are resources for worship, small group discussions, Sunday School for young children, elementary-age children, youth, and adults, as well as an intergenerational gathering for each unit. Foundational essays, practicing the practice at home worksheets, and activities for children in worship are included with every unit.


Young and Old. More than anything, we need you! We need people who can be part of the conversation. Please give us some of your time so that we might get to know each other.

Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner’s Guide to Holy Week

by Amy-Jill Levine

February 26 - April 2

Sundays at 11:30 am

Genesis Room and on Zoom


A Lenten Study

Dive deep into the history of the last days before the crucifixion.

Jesus’ final days were full of risk. Every move he made was filled with anticipation, danger, and the potential for great loss or great reward. Jesus risked his reputation when he entered Jerusalem in a victory parade. He risked his life when he dared to teach in the Temple. His followers risked everything when they left behind their homes, or anointed him with costly perfume. We take risks as we read and re-read these stories, finding new meanings and new challenges.


In Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner’s Guide to Holy Week, author, professor, and biblical scholar Amy-Jill Levine explores the biblical texts surrounding the Passion story. She shows us how the text raises ethical and spiritual questions for the reader, and how we all face risk in our Christian experience. 

Galatians – A look at Paul’s words to the Church Then and Now

by Pastor Jeff

April 12 - May 17

Wednesdays at 7:00 pm

Genesis Room and on Zoom


A Scripture Study

Paul’s letter to the church in Galatia has long been one of my favorite books of the Bible. My centering scripture comes from chapter 3 and is the basis of my call to serve Christ. In the course of 6 weeks we will explore each of the 6 chapters of this book/letter. Paul covers many issues including what is the true Gospel, conflicts between himself and other Apostles, the difficulty of understanding that both Jews and Gentiles are saved by faith, the nature of Christian freedom, works of the flesh versus fruits of the Spirit, and the work of serving and loving one another.
