EDUCATION
Here at Catawissa Avenue United Methodist Church, we take our continuing education in the faith very seriously! From the youngest child to the oldest adult, we offer engaging educational opportunities for each group, believing strongly that we need to continue, as Paul wrote, not to be conformed to the world, but transformed by the renewing of our minds. From Sunday School to Kids' Own Worship to short-term classes for adults, we offer a variety of ways to make sure that each person is discovering their hope in Jesus and then consciously sharing that hope with the community.
SUNDAY SCHOOL
Sunday School begins each week at 9am, with classes meeting throughout the building. Faith Weaver is the curriculum being used. This study began a few years ago which establishes our commitment to quality education. We continue to be excited about the kind of Christian Education we are able to offer to people of every age during our Sunday School hour. The following is a list of our classes: Preschool, K-2nd, 3rd-6th, 7th-12th, Parenting Class, Frank Discussions Class, and our long-running adult class. Each of our classes, with the exception of Frank's Discussion Group, will be dealing with a consistent story and theme on any given Sunday morning, so you and your family will all be learning about the same things, even if you are in different classes! We believe this helps facilitate discussions within your families, or even with another friend from the church who may not be in your class!
During the Summer months (starting the first Sunday of June) Frank's Discussion Class, The Believers Class continue to meet. New this year has been combining our children classes into one. Classes will continue to meet at 9am each week, so adults are invited to attend that class if you would like to continue through the summer.
All are invited as we kick off our new year with the theme "Let's Talk about God." Come and join in the conversations!
