Adults
Crusaders Sunday School Class

Meets at 9:30 A.M. September through June in the First Floor Dussel Room

The Crusaders class meets weekly in the Dussel Room on the first floor of the Church. We study the International Series and other study books.  A number of persons take turns teaching. 

The class also meets occasionally for a program and social time. We participate in the church peanut brittle program, making as many as 800 cans each fall.  These funds enable us to support the local church and Alliance Community programs.

 

Most of us are senior citizens, and there is a rich fellowship as we are caring and supportive of each other in times of joys, problems, illness and other times of need.

 

We invite you to join us any Sunday and share the blessing of true Christian fellowship.
 

The Explorers

High school graduates through middle 20's (single and married) join together this fall at 9:30 a.m. in the third floor room next to the choir room.  The group will select the next topic for study. Sheila Gard is their teacher. 

       

Friendship II

Meets at 9:30 A.M. September through June in the First Floor Asbury Room

Our class is an informal gathering of people of all ages. Our goal is to be a place where friends gather and strangers are welcome, as we support each other in our common aim to learn and grow as Christians. We meet in in the Asbury Room, first floor - East .

Class Projects:

  •       Peanut brittle. We make it in the fall for sale to the community. Proceeds from this project are used to fund the class budget.   We collect 1# / 13 oz. size coffee cans year-round for this project.  We need about 2,000.  Can you  help?

  •       Food booth at Carnation Days in the Park. We serve 1/3# ground sirloin sandwiches and hot dogs. Proceeds from this project are donated directly to the church budget.

  •       Friendship II Class traditionally sponsors the Church-Wide Family Night Dinner, held on the 1st or 2nd Sunday in December at 6 p.m. 

  •       History:  Friendship II class was founded in October, 1974, encouraged by friend and teacher, James Williams.

Protheons and Builders Classes

The Protheons and Builders Classes were a couple of the oldest Sunday School Classes.  As we each lost members and neither class had had many members, we joined and became one class.  The teachers of both classes took turns teaching the lesson.  At that time, we were interacting with the third and fourth grade Sunday School class.  We recognized birthdays and special holidays with small inexpensive gifts, and they did the same for us.  The names, Protheon and Builders, were a bit much for some of them, so they nicknamed us the B's and P's.  That's how we are still known.

We occasionally go for brunch after Sunday School and enjoy fellowship. We as a class have grown quite close and support one another with prayer and being there when needed.  

  Voyagers

Founded Fifty years ago, the Voyagers Sunday School Class explores the Bible and its application to current events in a warm and friendly atmosphere of  lively discussion. Class members act as teachers and discussion leaders. Jim Williams, Arnie Hirvela, Bud Tuttle, Paul Whipple and others share in leading the group.

Adults of all ages are invited to join this class which meets each Sunday morning in a classroom located opposite the choir room on the third floor of the educational annex. Various social events are also held throughout the year, including decorating the Christmas Tree in the Lounge for Advent.
