ADULT INFORMATION CLASS

A new series of Adult Information Classes is being scheduled for this summer. This class provides an overview of our church’s beliefs, with a focus on showing where these teachings are found in the Bible. It also gives you an opportunity to ask any questions you might have about what we believe and why.

 
These classes serve as preparation for membership and Communion at Our Redeemer Evangelical Lutheran Church—but everyone is welcome to attend the class, without any obligation to join. The class can also serve as a refresher for those who are already members.
 

If you have any questions, please speak with Pastor Stinnett, or call the church office at 232-7575.
