Adult

A variety of adult Sunday school classes are offered year-round from 9:30 to 10:40 A.M. All ages are encouraged to “shop around” to find the class that “fits” best. All classes study Scripture with varying topics and study styles. Topics range from the basics of Christian Faith, to a particular book of the Bible, to Biblical principles for relationships and parenting. Study styles differ in the amount of pre-class preparation, teacher presentation, or group participation.

Our Seekers Sunday School Class study Biblically based topics discussed in a discussion format, as opposed to lectures. The study books used are Inter-Varsity Press publications in the Lifeguide Bible Studies series. Topics are selected by class members and emphasize strengthening our faith for Christian living. Members are in all stages of faith and Biblical knowledge and range in age from the 20s to 60s. This class has periodic social events in homes and frequently eats meals together in local restaurants. The Seekers meet at 9:30am in room 216.

Bethany uses the International SS Lesson series as their curriculum. Lessons alternate on a quarterly basis between the Old and New Testaments. They meet at 9:30am in room 205, and extend a welcome you to their class!

Cornerstone is led by rotating facilitators that guide discussions about Old and New Testament books and topics. A large class, the members support each other by sharing prayers and praises each week and enjoying regular socials. They meet at 9:30am in Room 215.

Genesis to Revelation is currently beginning a new study using David C. Cook's "Through-the Bible" series. Genesis to Revelation meets at 9:30am in room 218.

Also at 9:30am, the New Directions class meets in room 200.

At 11:00am, the Insiders class meets in room 218.


Confirmation

The Confirmation class is an opportunity for young people of the church to study basic Christian beliefs, the place of Scripture in our lives, the meaning of the sacraments, and what it means to be a member of Christ's church. Students in grades 7 or above are eligible. Those who complete the class will be received into the full membership of Pender United Methodist Church.


Special Programs such as Vacation Bible School, video film series, seminars and Christian speakers are available at various times throughout the year. For current programs and topics being studied, contact the church office at (703)278-8023.
