Sunday School

Join a Sunday School ClassTraditionally, Sunday School is our primary vehicle for instruction in God's Word. At First Presbyterian Sunday School is a family affair. We have classes for children, youth, and a number of classes for adults. There are adult classes for young adults, senior citizens, as well as classes that are more general and inclusive. The Sunday School time begins at 9:30 a.m. with Koinonia Kafe, a time of light refreshments and fellowship in the Fellowship Hall. There even is a corner for the children: Expresso Yourself Cafe. Classes begin at 10:00 a.m. A greeter in the Fellowship Hall will be glad to assist you in choosing a class to visit. The classes and locations are:
     Nursery and Preschool (2s, 3s & 4s) - 2nd Floor
    Grades K-2, 3-5, and 6-8 - 3rd Floor
    Grades 9-12 - Youth Room, Basement of Sanctuary
    Walter Goodman Class - Basement of Sanctuary - Adult Class, follows International Lesson Plan.
    Good News Class - Session Room (Basement of Sanctuary) - Adult Class, somewhat follows the lectionary.
    Drummond Bible Class - 2nd Floor - Adult Class, follows International Lesson Plan.
    Disciples Class - 2nd Floor - Adult Class, does in-depth Bible study and topical studies
    Young Adult Class - 2nd Floor

 

Bible Studies

Several times a year a variety of short-term (6-8 weeks) Bibles Studies are offered.  These study groups meet in homes and at the church on various days and times.  Please watch the weekly bulletin for details.

The congregation is enrolled in the Disciple Bible Study Program.  This is an intensive 32 week survey of the Bible with an emphasis on God's Word as a transforming message for today.  Watch the bulletin for details about the next class start.

 

Vacation Bible School

V.B.S. is an exciting time for all ages at First Presbyterian. Our 2011 Vacation Bible School is scheduled for July 18-21.


Other Christian Education Opportunities

First Presbyterian occasionally provides other educational opportunities such as marriage and family seminars or film series and special speakers.
