At Broadway United Methodist Church, our Sunday School has a class for you! We offer Sunday School classes for all age and interest groups. It's a provocative concept that allows you to choose a class that fits your needs, your learning style. Whether you want a traditional bible study type class, or spirited discussion forum... Whether you're 20, or 120, we provide you with the opportunity for mature adult engagement. Come in to LEARN. Go out to LIVE!
For your convenience, Sunday School for all (including children and youth) is held at 9:30 AM, between the two worship services so that if you want to attend the Contemporary Service, Rejuvenation Station, you could do that and then go to Sunday School, or if you wanted to attend our Morning Worship, you could come to Sunday School at 9:30 AM and then attend worship immediately following. Either way, please stop by and give us a try. We welcome you and encourage your participation. |
