Christian Education
Christian Education is a life-long process beginning, but not ending, in childhood. We believe that parents and grandparents are the primary Christian educators of their children and it is the church’s responsibility to provide the education, support, resources, and fellowship necessary to equip parents and other caregivers for this role. We rely on feedback from the adults in designing adult Christian education classes to best meet their needs.
Cribbery and Nursery
Cribbery is provided each week for children from birth to age 2 during the 9:30 AM and 11:00 AM worship services.
Nursery services are also available for children ages 3-5 during the 11:00 AM worship service.

Sunday School
Preschool through Adult classes are offered each Sunday from 9:30-10:30 a.m. Children and Youth begin with opening worship in Gilbert Hall at 9:30 a.m. before being dismissed to their classes. The Preschool through Middle School classes are working through the LIVE B.I.G. curriculum which addresses different learning styles through video, music, drama, games and crafts. The High School class is currently studying "The Gospel According to the Simpsons."
Adult Education
Bible study is just as important for adults as for children if we are to continue to grow in the knowledge and understanding that leads to faith maturity. We offer
three adult education classes on Sunday mornings in addition to a variety of short-and long-term studies throughout the year. The style and format of each class varies, ranging from a "Bible 101" class to a Christian book discussion class. Grace Church strongly encourages all adults to participate in Christian Education classes.
Disciple and Short Term Studies
This year we are offering the a Beginning (32 week) Bible Study. Additionally, there are several shorter studies offered throughout the year such as Advent,
Lent, and two other indepth studies of the Gospels of
Mark and John.
