ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL
CLASSES
The opportunities
for Christian Education are many and varied. In addition to the Sunday
school classes for children and youth, several Adult classes, led by
outstanding members of our congregation, are offered.
BIBLE STUDY:
Our Tuesday morning Bible Study
is held at 6:00 am weekly in the
church Conference Room. Please join us for coffee and some great
conversation. If you are interested, please make a note on your
attendance form or call the church office at 884-4221, or email
egumc@aol.com.
VELVET ELVIS:
The title is strange, but the book is excellent! Tim Swartz
loaned me a copy over a year ago and it took me a long time to get around to
reading it, partly because the title was way too cute. Rob Bell has written
a great book about how every generation needs to "repaint" the Christian
faith so that it makes sense for a new group in a new day. In many ways it
is a very good description of what we are trying to do here at EGUMC. I am
leading a 7 week study on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 pm. Bill
Trench
This class is also being held on Sunday mornings at 9:00 am, and Wednesdays at 12:30 pm. Bring your lunch!
ONLINE BIBLE
STUDY:
Please join the EGUMC on-line Bible study. Each week friends and members of our congregation share their feelings, thoughts,
questions, personal experiences and faith concerning the upcoming lectionary readings.
If you would like to catch up on what we have been discussing, you can view our messages at:

THE SUNDAY 9:00 AM
DISCUSSION GROUP!
Join us on Sundays at
9:00
am in the Senior High Sunday School room for discussion and
fellowship. Come once in a while or come every week. Bring a friend or
not. Chat a lot or listen a lot. We are presently studying
"Velvet Elvis." (Please refer to above article.)
Questions? See Keith Sanzen or Tim Swartz.
ADULT BIBLE STUDY: Join
us following the early service for a Sunday morning Bible study. After a
brief interlude, this group will return to a Lectionary-based study using
resources selected by the group. We will be using the bimonthly publication
Alive Now as our resource to begin. The discussions will be open and lively.
And, the more participants we have, the better it will be. Please join us
Sunday morning at 9:45 AM, in the Conference Room. Contact Linda
Bergemann for more information.
MEN'S

All men are invited to join the Men's Bible Study group for coffee and
discussion every Thursday morning from 6:00-7:00
