Ministries & Programs
Education & Formation

We provide opportunities for education and spiritual formation for all parishioners - adults, youth and children. These include Sunday activities before and after worship, events throughout the week, and special seasonal programs.

Members of the ministry serve as Sunday school teachers; we plan and facilitate activities in the areas of education and spiritual formation; and we are responsibile for seasonal programs throughout the church year, as well as for preparing persons for confirmation as adult members of the church.

Meetings are the 2nd Wednesday of every month at 6:30 p.m. in the Guild Room. If you are interested in helping out with this work or joining this committee, please email Wayne Floyd at waynefloyd1@verizon.net.

  • Caging the Tiger
