Ventures in Faith Adult Sunday School Class

Sundays, 9:45am, Church School Building, Room 401

Drawing from the wisdom of her ancestors, pastor and professor Jennifer Leath said that our greatest strength is not in being personally powerful but in being surrounded—encircled by those who support, welcome, and protect us. The Ventures in Faith adult Sunday discussion group is one of those circles at Glenn. Whether we are variously resting and being restored in the center, or welcoming, sheltering, and offering protection at the edges, we find strength with each other as we explore our Christian faith. Each week we consider a biblically based topic or scripture verses for discussion comfortable for both introverts and extroverts.  Contact Gordon Boice for more information.

L.I.F.E Sunday School Class

Sundays, 9:45am, Room 422

L.I.F.E stands for Living in Faith Effectively. Discussion based, casual, class looking at living faithfully while balancing professional and family lives.  Contact David O’Brien or Emily Washburn for more information.
