Men's Class

This class is designed for men to bond with men of all ages.

Bible Basics

Sunday, June 12th - July 24th, 9-10:30am in Room 106

Adult co-ed class

We are living in days where fewer and fewer people are familiar with the Bible. Even if you have a history of going to church and can quote or recognize scriptures, you may not have a framework for which to read it or even know why you should want to read this ancient book. In this casual class, we will explore topics such as how we got the Bible, who wrote it, how it is laid out, how to interpret the various genres in the Bible, sin, salvation, baptism, and prayer. Bring your Bibles and your questions and let’s grow in faith together. No class on July 3rd.

Led by Brenda Tennill

*Please note the dates for this class have changed due to teacher availability.

Women's Discipleship

Saturdays, 8:30-10am in The Fireside Room

Adult women’s class

This class is designed to help women grow in knowledge of the Lord together. As we seek to know the Word of God better, we will also know ourselves as God sees us. This group will be a place where we will open God’s Word together, learn from one another, and share in a safe space as we all enter in with teachable spirits. Our study will revolve around God’s Word, so all you need to do is bring your Bible (if you don’t have one, we’ll get you one).

Led by Michelle Lewis

Women's Book Club

The goal for this book club is to provide opportunities for fellowship for the women of Windsor Road, as well as for women who may not attend the church. When selecting books, we will strive to provide a catalyst for reflection, self-examination, and spiritual growth.
