The adult classes use several types of study material,
The International Lesson, Adult Bible Studies curriculum,
Faith Link materials, and The Wild Truth Bible Lessons just
to name a few. The classes assist with Calvary Refuge
Center, the Annual Barbecue, the annual yard sale, various
service projects within the community, contribute to all
church-wide mission projects, and Children's Home and
Aldersgate. They have socials, in-home dinners, restaurant
"visits", quarterly luncheons and dinners. Please join us.
Middle and High School Youth meet on Sunday mornings at
9:45 for fellowship and study. College students meet with
the Young Adults. During May of each year, students
graduating from high school and from college are recognized
during a Sunday morning worship service. Graduating seniors
and students already enrolled in college are eligible to
apply for a scholarship set up last year in memory of Mary
Alice Boyd. The scholarship recipient is named in May or
June; the first recipient was Nick Gailey.
There are pre-school and early primary and upper primary Sunday School
classes. Rising Third Graders are presented with Bibles in the fall. Seasonal
activities planned for the children include March kite flying, the Easter egg
hunt, the Palm Sunday processional, Trunk or Treat at Halloween, a Thanksgiving
feast, and a Birthday Party for Jesus (with gifts of socks, mittens, hats
donated to a local shelter). Children play various roles in the Live Nativity
Scene from shepherds to “littlest” angels.
There is always a children’s sermon during the worship hour, and younger
children go from the children’s sermon segment to Children’s Church where
activities, songs and learning are planned for them.
