        Sunday School Classes meet every Sunday at 9:30 a.m for all Ages.        

         You are invited to try out any or all of the Sunday School Classes.  They understand that it is a serious matter to find just the right group that you can  fit into.  

Once a Quarter all of the classes meet together  in the Fellowship Hall for Common Grounds.  That is a good time to drop in for a test visit.
