Study of the Gospels, using Barclay's commentaries

The Law Class    Leaders: Joe Brooks, Martha Ebel, Sally Farris, Jane Keisler,  and Nevyn Rankin,  Room 26
Named for Ernestine Law, this class is dedicated to serving God and each other.  Using the Uniform Cooperative Series, they are studying the Bible in a truly international interdenominational format. 
 
Parental Guidance Required, Parlor
Facilitators:  Dana Cozad, Melissa Riley, Sally Jenkins, and Mary Sue Wyatt
Study after study indicates that children raised in the church are more likely to be successful and well adjusted.  Truly!  But in today’s consumer driven media intense culture, it is difficult to keep our families flying true.  Each Sunday a team of teachers and leaders works with members to bring the Word of God to bear on Parenting issues, from finances to discipline.
 
 5:00 - 7:00 p.m.
 
Journey Class, Conference Room and Parlor    Leaders:  Dr. David Cozad, Rev. Holly Shoaf-O'Kula
