Freedom Class

Early fellowship begins at 9:45 a.m. with refreshments. Centrally located in the Adult Lounge (ask at the Welcome Center for directions), this class offers a great chance to meet new people, make friends and study the Bible in an open discussion with experienced leaders and teachers. The Freedom Class also meets for dinners, movies, special trips and service projects.

Soul Cafe Class

The Soul Cafe meets at 9:50 each Sunday morning in Room 222. Class members are singles and young married couples in their early 20s to early 30s. With Bible study as its main focus, the Soul Cafe class also enjoys book studies, video lessons and discussion of current topics. Trips to Six Flags, pot-luck meals, birthday parties, camping, concerts and mission projects highlight our "outside the church" fellowship. College students are always welcome.
