Bible Study

You are invited to the relaunch of our Sunday School and Adult Bible Study program on Sunday, February 19th, at 10:15AM! We’ll start with coffee, juice and donuts in the school cafeteria. Check out our classes below and call our church office to sign up so we can have materials for you! Seeing this after our launch date? No problem! Come anyway! You are always welcome at St. John’s!

• “Bible Songs and Stories”
  Parents, share fellowship with other parents as you instill the love of Jesus in your little ones, ages 0-2!

• “Enduring Faith”
  Designed for every age, children will learn Bible stories and begin the journey of taking them into their own hearts and minds! Classes include: PreK-K, 1st-2nd grade, 3rd-4th grade, 5th-6th grade, and 7th-8th grade.

• “Called to Be -Equipped to Do: A Study in Discipleship”
  We are Christ’s heirs, disciples, living stones, body and bride.  Draw closer to God and to one another as we strengthen and unify our congregational focus on God’s purpose for us before we begin Missional Planning this Spring!

• “A Deeper Look at the Scriptures”
  If you are already in a Congregational Bible Study small group during the week – or if you just want to learn even more about the Bible passages from the church service, this class is for you!
  

In addition, inquire with the church office about scheduling an Ask the Pastor course or signing up for Confirmation classes.
