Sunday School

The Sunday School Program at John Wesley UMC is a Christian education program offered for all ages, from toddlers to senior adults. Classes typically meet on Sunday mornings, 9:45 - 10:45 in between worship services, and are designed to help participants grow in faith, deepen their understanding of the Bible, and build community.

Sunday School is about the lifelong process of faith formation: learning, studying, and applying Christian faith to our everyday lives. As part of the United Methodist Church’s mission to “make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world,” Sunday School equips and develops disciples who are active in the church and community.
