ADULT COMMUNITIES

Each of the Adult Communities of College Church meet on Sunday mornings during the school year. Each unique group provides a place for you to grow in knowledge, prayer, and faith. An Adult Community connects people from all walks of life as they study God’s Word together and prayerfully consider how He is working in their lives. Adult Communities are an important part of the life of College Church. During the Summer, most classes do not meet weekly, and we gather for our Summer Forums. Adults should attend our Summer Forums (listed at right).

When you join an Adult Community, you will get to know other people and learn about God's Word and how it speaks to your life.

 

Most of the Adult Communities listed below meet throughout the school year, but not regularly in the summer. To learn what each class is studying and where they meet, visit the Information Table in the Narthex or contact the Church Office.
