Fall 2022 Class Options:


Grief- Whether you're experiencing new or enduring grief related to any kind of loss, you are invited to journey through the Psalms with Pastor Michelle. People of all ages are welcome, and the class will meet upstairs in Room 200 starting September 18 (will not meet Oct. 30-Nov. 13).



Passing On Faith (Oct. 30- Nov. 13): What does it mean for the church to invest in the next generation? And where do we begin? In this three week class, you're invited to learn more about ways we can answer these critical questions.
