The Adult Fellowship Class, also referred to more recently as the Special Topics Sunday School Class, was formed in 1946 by Reverend Lacy Burns and Lynn Hastings. It was felt the church needed a class to serve the needs of returning veterans of World War II and the middle and twenty year old age group. Mrs. John Morris was the first teacher. For many years the class was called “Young Adults” before becoming the “Adult Fellowship.” 

We have taken a fresh look at the Ten Commandments, examined some of Jesus’ parables through the eyes of a Jewish scholar, wrestled with how to be “Anxious For Nothing” with one of our favorite authors Max Lucado, learned how to “Love Everybody Always” with the amazing Bob Goff, studied and wrestled with a very challenging book by Craig Groeschel “The Christian Atheist,” and most recently spent some great moments exploring the book of James with the guidance once again of Max Lucado.

The class is informal, the discussion enlightening, the laughter and tears real. We pray that our Lord will soften our hearts and strengthen our resolve to love and serve Him and others.

The class meets every Sunday at 9:40 in the Jack Johns classroom located above the sanctuary off the balcony. And the best thing is that you can jump in at any time. Please do.

The Wayside Helpers Class of Spruce Street UMC which started about 1916 (First Methodist Protestant Church then) now meets every Sunday in the Wayside Helpers classroom next to the Overflow area, behind the piano. Faithfulness in Sunday worship, the desire to do good, and the spirit of cooperation have always been attributes of the Wayside Helpers Class in supporting SSUMC and the community.

The Adult Bible Study quarterly series has proved to be an excellent bible based quarterly study through the years. What better way to grow your Christianity than to study scripture and how it applies to our lives. The class is coeducational.

Teachers include: Bill Kennell, Doug Stanger, Kent Hastings, and Pat Ryan.

Please come and join us! ALL are welcome! We would be HAPPY to see YOU on Sunday at 9:30.

Leader: Lena Glowacky

Our Children’s Sunday School Class is offered every Sunday during the 10:45 service. Kindergarten through Elementary children are invited to attend Sunday School following the Children’s Moment during service. Class is held in the recently renovated basement.

Ms. Lena and Ms. Judi plan engaging activities for class and, when weather allows, activities outside the building like the Walk for Alzheimer’s.  

Please join Ms. Lena and Ms. Judi to continue to learn and grow your faith in God.

Each week an email is sent out to our church families with children that includes a lesson and Children’s Sunday Bulletin. If you are not receiving the email and would like to, please contact the church office.
