OUR ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASSES
OUR ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASSES
Cornerstone Class – “So then you are no longer strangers…but you are fellow members in the household of God…Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone.” (Eph. 2:19-20). Member of this class are singles and couples in their 20’s and 30’s working together to strengthen their foundation of faith. These students, parents and professionals offer support to each other as they grow together spiritually and socially. Through class-led discussions centered on improving their knowledge of Bible literacy, this class offers a relaxed environment that encourages members to openly ask questions and share their concerns. They meet upstairs of the Cokesbury Building near the entrance to the Asbury Building.
Drake Class – The Drake Class is named after long time teacher and founder, Chuck Drake, who over thirty years ago required his softball team to attend Sunday School at least once a month. Our main curriculum is the Cokesbury Adult Bible Study, but we bring in other curriculum periodically, and class members rotate teaching. Since we are members of the Baby Boomer generation, we tend to be active in leadership roles in the church as well as in the community. In addition, we support local and foreign missions. We would love for you to join us and become a part of our class. Our class meets in the Cambridge Building by the ramp door near the sanctuary.
