ADULT MINISTRIES

We offer a variety of ways for adults to deepen their relationships and connect their faith to their everyday lives. From Sunday morning forums and discussions, to Monday morning in-person and midweek "Inside the Text" online bible studies, to special speakers, presentations, and community conversations, there is something for everyone. Join us for one or all of these opportunities, and if there is something you would like see, email Pastor Lydia or call (952) 935-1753.

ADULT CONFIRMATION CLASS
THURSDAYS AT 6:45 OR SUNDAYS AT 9:45
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, beginning Feb 19. (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.

MONDAY BIBLE STUDY
10:00 AM IN THE FIRESIDE GALLERY
Join Pastor Amy Mondays at 10:00 AM for a Bible Study focused on the coming week's Lectionary Texts. Together we read, reflect, share, and learn as the Holy Spirit leads.
INSIDE THE TEXT
WEDNESDAYS ONLINE
Each week one of our pastors shares a short Bible study video on the gospel reading for the upcoming Sunday. Read along and learn some of the unique points of the scripture with historical context, literary criticism, and theological interpretations of the text. Learn why the preacher lifts up certain points of the text and how they fit themes we are focusing on at church. These lessons will enhance your ability to hear the Sunday sermon in a whole new way.=
MEN'S MINISTRY
MEN'S MINISTRY
Men’s Ministry encompasses all men of Gethsemane, young and old. It provides Christian growth and fellowship opportunities to our congregation and community. The purpose of Men’s Ministry is to encourage Christian discipleship through four different areas of our lives: faithful worship attendance, living in God's word, serving Christ's church and the world, and fellowship with other male identifying people in our community.

The Gethsemane Golf League is going strong! Our groups play at Glen Lake Golf Course in Minnetonka every Thursday; first tee time is usually around 9:00 AM.

WOMEN'S MINISTRY
WOMEN'S MINISTRY
Gethsemane's budding women's ministry is for all women, girls, and femmes looking for a place to belong and explore the theology of the Divine Feminine and the power of Christ's incarnation as carried and shared by women like Mary Magdalene, the Holy Mother, and even us. Throughout the year we gather to celebrate and honor the elements of creation - earth, water, fire, air - through contemplation and communal ritual at the fall and spring equinoxes, and more in-between.
