Adult Faith Formation
Faith formation is a journey that continues throughout our lives, shaping and reshaping our beliefs and actions as we grow. Our Adult Faith Formation programs offer a welcoming space to explore new ideas, engage with different theologies, and deepen your spiritual understanding. These spaces are designed to help you connect your faith with everyday life, empowering you to live out the gospel values of love and justice. We invite you to join us in this journey—explore our wide range of activities and discover new ways to integrate your faith into the world around you.
Words on the Word
Sundays | 9:15-10:15am
Start your Sunday morning by diving deeper into scripture!
Join Rev. Sarah Brouwer for a thoughtful and engaging text study that explores the scripture reading for that morning’s worship service. Together, we’ll unpack the passage, ask questions, and discover how the ancient words of faith continue to speak into our lives today.
This is a relaxed, welcoming space—no prior preparation needed, just bring your curiosity and openness. Whether you’re new to Bible study or a longtime learner, you’ll find insight, conversation, and connection.
Choir members—don’t worry! Even if you need to slip out early for rehearsal at 9:45, you are warmly encouraged to come.
