Adult Education
Our mission, as the Adult Education Team, is to provide for the discipleship of our congregation so that they can live the mission of First Presbyterian Church to the glory of God.
We do this by:
- growing in our relationship with Jesus Christ through Bible study and education on Sunday mornings and Wednesday Nights.
- deepening our connection with one another through sharing, classes, and fellowship.
- living what we have learned in our families, at work, at school, and in our service to the world as members of First Pres.

Transitions: Making Sense of Life's Changes
with Pastor Jim Blades
Using the work of William Bridges, this class will study the impact of change upon our lives, our styles of response to change and practical ways of improving our response. We will study the difference between "change" and "transition" and explore the emotional and spiritual dimensions of life's typical transitions.
This class will benefit anyone who wants to gain insight into changes taking place in their relationships, career, health, family life, or seasons of life. Class starts Jan 27th and runs through the end of February in the Sanctuary.
