Adult Religious Education & Adult Forum
We offer a variety of classes throughout the year, including the Great Decisions series. Visit our Events page for more information about our upcoming Adult Religious Education opportunities.
Currently Adult Forum is one of our most popular Adult Education opportunities!
Members and friends are invited to share information, ideas, opinions, and other edifying materials. Each Sunday (except for those with a potluck after the service, usually the first Sunday each month), a volunteer will lead a discussion about a topic of interest. The Forum will begin at 9:00am ET, and end around 10:15.
Childcare is available; please contact Gail DeSomer if you want to schedule it: gaildesomer AT yahoo DOT com
