Adult Christian Education

Christian education and formation is the lifelong process of growing in our relationship with God, self, others, and all creation. Along with worship, fellowship and prayer, part of the active Christian life includes the regular and thorough study of scripture or other books on faith. Every experience in our lives can provide us with the opportunity to express our faith; the challenge we face is recognizing these opportunities and learning ways to live a sometimes counter-cultural life in a secular world.

Here at St. Francis, we recognize the importance of cultivating our personal relationships with God and each other and nurturing our spiritual growth. To help meet these needs, St. Francis offers a Sunday morning class, Men's Bible Studies, Women's Bible Studies, and groups that meet for mid-week worship and fellowship, and fun.

Sunday Morning Class

Sundays, 10:10 am; year-round
People Place (near the St. Francis School office)
Leader: George Hippard

The Adult Christian Education Class where people come and learn about God as revealed in his Word: the Holy Bible. All are welcome to attend this informal group where there is no homework. Each class is stand-alone as we study the Bible or books about biblical concepts. Lively and enlightening discussions are part of our interaction with the text.

Men’s Bible Studies

This group studies a variety of books, including the Bible, with the focus of trying to understand how God works in our lives. Our discussions come from a “guy’s” point of view: how faith informs how you act as a man, husband, father, employee, employer, etc.
