Times, Dates and Themes
Meet Wednesdays 2:45-3:45 PM @ Church in The Gathering Place Room
This year is all about God as our Creator and loving Father/Parent. We learn about God’s people, God’s faithfulness to them and how we see ourselves in these very human stories. We’ll learn about human highs and lows, mistakes and goofs, and the gift of forgiveness and a renewed heart. We will be using our Bibles, Legos, and movies along with other materials that Pastor Rhonda and Julia find useful.
Do you know any students who would be interested in affirming their faith through these classes and wants to commit to our year long learning to grow in faith? Invite them!
