Godly Play: Meets after Communion during the 10:00 service for about 20 minutes. Join the teachers in the Tower Room (outside the double doors of the sanctuary) and go up the stairs to the chapel for class. Godly Play is a Montessori-inspired approach to Christian formation that uses storytelling, wondering questions, and creative expression to help children explore their faith.
Adult Class: Meets from 9:00-9:50 in the Skylight Room.
In Epiphany, we will study the book Paul the Pharisee by John Dominic Crossan. You do not have to read the book to attend the class; there will be a brief presentation/summary and then we all discuss ideas from the book.
