To train our children in the principles of the Word of God we use a systematic memory work book, including sections of the catechism and important Bible passages laid out for each year from age 2 through 12th grade.
Adult Sunday School
The Bible is a big book. In it, God tells us what we most need to know about himself and about ourselves. What are those things? In this new series, we will be looking at The Westminster Confession of Faith, described by Sinclair Ferguson as “the fullest and most carefully constructed brief exposition of the Christian faith ever written.” To help guide us through the riches of Biblical teaching outlined in the Confession, we are presenting a new Adult Sunday School class, beginning May 29 in the Sanctuary. Mike Pfefferle will start us off and other teachers will be joining in to teach from time to time. Whether you are new to the Christian faith or have walked with Christ for many years, your faith will be deepened and enriched by this study of the great truths of God’s word to us.
“Women of Faith” Class, the 629 House
Sunday School – Women's Ministry House, 9:45-10:45am
Ladies,This summer we are continuing through CS Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia. Next up is The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. We are reading dramatically, so here’s your chance to be Edmund or Lucy, or Caspian or Reepicheep, or even Eustace Clarence Scrubb. Michael Ward in The Narnia Code says, “Lewis was fascinated by the Sun's supposed power to make gold, and he thought it could be used as a symbol of God’s ability to save us from our sins and turning them into something much more precious, transforming ‘the comely common to cordial gold’ …” In Greek mythology, the Sun was represented by the god Apollo, who was a famous dragon slayer. In this third Narnia volume, four dragonish creatures are defeated by the Sun’s influence. Bring along your own copy of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and meet with us in the new women’s ministry house across the alley.
NOTE: Occasionally, we enjoy the opportunity to meet together in the north side of DeSoto Hall and share new insights and prayer concerns, as well as give you any updates in Women’s Ministry. These dates will be announced in the bulletin!

For many of us, we’ve heard the gospel all our lives. We can tell you all about it and can explain it, but the disconnect comes when we apply it to our lives. Come study the book of Galatians with us as we see why the gospel message was so controversial, and begin to understand how it transforms our outlook on our day-to-day lives. High schoolers (9th-12th grade) are encouraged to join Pastor Gutiérrez, Mr. & Mrs. Funches, and Evan Kvale Sundays 10:00-10:45am, in Room 304.
