SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASSES

	Seasons
	Cornerstone	The Cornerstone Sunday school class is a very lively class and share in each others joys and concerns. We are open to both singles and married couples. We meet in the Family Life Center in the large classroom of the upper level north side.
	Relations	The Relations Sunday School class is made up of adults struggling to figure out how to relate being a Christian in today's world. We offer short-term studies on a variety of topics dealing with the way we live. We are currently looking at The Song of Solomon with Tommy Nelson - a video Bible study on the Song of Solomon that teaches the Biblical design for relationships. The Relations class encourages anyone to drop in and see who we are regardless of age, marital status, race, etc. - all are welcome into this expression of the body of Christ! We meet in the upstairs corner room on the north side in the Family Life Center.
	Pairs & Spares	Pairs and Spares Sunday School class uses a traditional format with teaching and group discussion. Our goal is to come together for study and prayer in order to live our lives as Christ teaches.  Our group is diverse with middle and older age members, with or without spouses, children, or grandchildren. We welcome anyone who feels the need for study and discussion. We occasionally bring in short-term studies of interest to the class to supplement our regular Methodist literature.  We are located on the lower level of the Family Life Center in the northeast corner classroom. Please join us.
	Misfits	The Misfits Sunday School class is for adults who enjoy discussing how our faith applies to our daily lives. This class is great for those find it difficult or impossible to attend every Sunday. We purposefully choose Bible or book studies where each week’s lesson can stand alone so that when one has to miss one or more Sundays, he or she is not ‘lost’ when returning. We are currently working our way through the book, Jesus CEO by Laurie Beth Jones. The Misfits are not defined by age, gender, marital or any other status. Everyone is welcome! We meet in Pastor Dyan’s office.
