Christian Education


Confirmation

Picture
Confirmation Class 2025 coming in May.
 Confirmation classes are for youth entering the 7th grade (or higher) who have   a desire to learn about Jesus and become members of St. Mark’s UCC.  Confirmation classes meet weekly beginning September and conclude on Pentecost Sunday when the Confirmands join the church. During the year  we  learn about the Bible, Christian beliefs, Christian history, the role of the Church, and we will learn enough about God’s role in our lives to write our own statements of faith. Throughout the year we will take multiple field trips to visit places of worship, do some mission work, meet some interesting people, and hopefully have some fun, too. If you are interested, please email  Pastor Dave [email protected]

Adult Sunday School

Adult Sunday School is held in the Conference Room at 10:15 a.m. following the gathering in the Narthex after the church service.  Adult leaders present lessons based on scripture or topics of today's society which are discussed by those in attendance.  Feature movies are also viewed and used as stimulus for group dialogue.  

Bible Study

Wednesday mornings at 10:00 AM  everyone is invited to Bible Study in Fellowship Hall.  The text for the week is a review of the Scriptures for Sunday.  You're welcome to come a little earlier to get the morning cup of coffee to get you going for the day.  Bring your Bible and join the rest of the group for a discussion on God's Word. 

Children's Church

After the children's message during the church service, the children  (ages 3-10) are dismissed from the service to attend Children's Church.  Here they are taught Bible lessons, and participate in stories, music, and crafts plus enjoy snacks.  Lay leaders present the children's message and direct the activities during Children's Church.

Besides learning about the Bible, the kids in Children's Church send cards to our parishioners and do special projects.  Below is them making scarves for the neighborhood to use.
