We welcome individuals who have an interest in learning about their faith and the Christian Tradition.  Education happens in a variety of settings.  We worship on Sunday morning is at 8 a.m. and 10 a.m., and 9:00 a.m. mid-June through early September.  We offer morning and evening Bible Study opportunities on weekdays and also have a variety of resources for independent study.

Morning Bible Study

Meets every Thursday at 10:00 a.m. September through June.  On the first Thursday of the month we meet at Seabury in the Chapel. We meet in the Living room at church on the remaining Thursdays. Our focus is on the scripture for the coming Sunday, but you never know where the Spirit will lead us in our conversation!

By coming to Bible Study individuals are learning and preparing themselves for worship the coming Sunday.  The joy and fun of the Lectionary Bible Study is the interaction between the members and the minister.  Often the Bible Study discussion shapes the final direction and content of the minister’s sermon.  New participants are welcome to the Bible Study, church members and non-members alike.  Call the church office to confirm the meeting time.

Additional Resources

The church also provides two devotional magazines for personal use.  The table outside of the church office has the “Upper Room” and “Alive Now”.  Anyone is welcome to take a copy. Our Church Library also has a variety of books and devotional material for Christian education.

Occasionally the church also holds short-term study groups on various topics.  Ideas for Biblical and Topical Studies are always welcomed.
