Adult Confirmation Class: Lutheranism 101
This Lent we invite you to join our Adult Confirmation class. We will cover the core tenets of Luther’s Theology and how his Small Catechism was written to provide us the foundation for understanding “Who God Is,” “How We Talk to God,” and “How We Live in Relationship with God.”
We will offer these classes on Sunday mornings during Adult Education at 9:45, and Thursday evenings at 6:45 throughout the season of Lent. (No class Feb 26 or March 1.) Each week we will cover a different component of the catechism with the Thursday/Sunday lesson being the same so everyone has a chance to attend. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP and come discover again how we are “Saved by Grace!”
