The Chapel Class – meeting in the chapel, this class alternates between material and books regarding various topics of Christianity. In recent months, the class has discussed the book The Last Week – a careful examination of the week leading up to Jesus’ death and resurrection as told in the Gospel of Mark, The Syonptic Gospels, and The Denominational Traditions of the Christian Religion. You can contact DCE, Alicia Marts if you are interested in this class. Other teachers and moderators of the Crossroad’s Class include our pastor, Dr. Jonathan Carroll and Marisue Coy, among others.
The Seekers - meeting in the Parlor, this class follows another Presbyterian curriculum (We Believe; www.pcusa.org/webelieve), which is intended to help people understand God’s Word and apply it to their lives. The class is led by Keith Moore with Marilyn Van Winkle serving as a sub.
The Men’s Bible Study – meeting in the Men's Bible Classroom (lower level), this class uses a Presbyterian curriculum (The Present Word) as a guide for its time together. Class leaders include Ray Kramer, Tom Payne, Rick Park and Gus Paris.
Little Lambs (Agese 3-4) Sunday School - meeting in the Nursery, the 3 and 4-year olds explore matters of faith in age appropriate ways through art, crafts, and storytelling. Clerk of Session, Janice Odom, leads this group.
God's Children Sunday for Kindergarten through 5th Grade - meeting upstairs in the Education Wing, various congregants teach biblical stories, themes, and traditions every other Sunday. The lessons utilize a sensory approach, employing science, cooking, art, games, and stortytelling as the primary methods of learning. Alternatively, Patti Price, Assistant Director of Music, teaches God's Children Sing, giving our children a full experience of the breadth of the Christian tradition each Sunday morning at 10:30 on Sundays.
Jr. High & High School – meeting in the "Todd" room on Sunday mornings, we also have Sunday school opportunities for our youth. Currently, the classes are using Seasons of the Spirit – a curriculum designed to follow the same text used during Sunday worship. Through prayer, study, discussion, media, crafts and art, this curriculum is meant to present God’s Word clearly to each age group. Traditionally, the classes are taught be volunteers who rotate every month or every quarter.
- Teachers for the Jr. High Class (6th-8th) include John Lashbrook, Bill Duncan, Anthony Marts.
- Teachers for the Sr. High Class (9th-12th) include Merritt Thomas, Frances Malony, Valerie Holcomb, and Anthony Marts.
