This is a 4-week “United Methodism 101” style orientation class, taught by the Pastor, for people who are interested in joining the church or just looking to learn more about us. 

This class explores Methodist
history, music, beliefs about grace and the sacraments of communion and baptism, and ways to express our faith through service. 

This class is scheduled on an as-requested basis, so please contact the Pastor directly if interested.
