Adult Sunday School

If we are honest, most of us would admit that we're just scratching the surface in our understanding of what our faith is about. We come to church, sing hymns, and listen to a sermon; but how equipped do we feel to explain what we believe and why? If we start to think about the Bible, prayer, what happens after death, or what a Christian response is to the big issue of our day, most of us would have quickly to admit our embarrassing ignorance and confusion. So, how do we address this? It's fine having a few folk meeting in a house or a vestry, but we really need to meet the needs of the whole congregation here, and not just the select few.

Since most of us learned what we do know at Sunday School, we are inviting the entire congregation to return to Sunday School and learn again.

In September 2009, we had a 10 week adult Sunday School. During these weeks, Sunday mornings started at 9.30am with "Adult Sunday School" for one hour, followed by our usual Sunday Service at 11.00. We followed that with another block in January, looking at the Bible and then at issues of science and faith.

From September 2010, we ran a six week course called "Suprised by Hope" on what the Christian Hope is.
