The Adult Faith Formation office seeks to bring families into an understanding of the faith, through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, wrapped in a community of love and fellowship. We offer a variety of seminars, workshops, classes and meetings for everyone who desires a deeper understanding and lasting relationship with Christ and his church. Some of our ongoing opportunities include several bible studies, parenting courses and spiritual formation. Along with guest speakers, our resident theologians shed light and reflection on our faith and our world. It is our goal in the Family and Faith formation office to nurture and nourish the lives and hearts of everyone that comes to us. If you have any questions about our ministry, please call Sherwood at 303-979-7688.
