Adult Education

Most adult education classes take place on Sunday mornings beginning at 9:45 a.m. Classes are divided by topic of interest and anyone is welcome to attend. All offer opportunities for open discussion, questions, dialogue, and fellowship. If you have questions about adult education, please contact Lauren Colwell.
