Christian Education for All Ages will begin at 9:00 A.M.

Worship will shift to 10:15 A.M. – Nursery Available

Adults will use Kerygma’s course, Discovering the Bible:  A New Generation.   This is one of Kerygma’s mid-level courses. It will provide accessibility for those who are beginning dedicated study of the Bible and enough depth to engage those who have previously studied the Bible.  Kerygma has a website for more info.  
 
Elementary School class will use the age appropriate level of We Believe, a course designed to develop knowledge of the Bible and insight for later study of the more advanced level of We Believe.
 
 
Seventh and Eighth grade class and the high school class will use the advanced level of We Believe, and teachers will develop lessons with the two different age ranges in mind.  It is designed to prepare for confirmation, as well as to deepen life in Christ and the Church for those already confirmed.

It celebrates God’s love and what God has done for us in Jesus Christ. Worship is our core response to God, and indeed, is our lifestyle. Music includes wonderful traditional hymns for their depth of meaning and beauty, and contemporary praise songs which proclaim Christ in today’s language and music. Preaching is the proclamation of Christ, the living Lord. We preach Christ “crucified and raised from the dead.” His earthly life, ministry and teaching is celebrated and explored. Preaching in the Kirk is both exposition of Scripture and application of the great truths of our faith to life in today’s complicated world.
