Preschool Sunday School: 3 thru 5 years Elementary: Kindergarten thru 2nd Grade Upper Elementary: 3rd thru 5th Grade Youth: 6th Grade thru Senior High Worship ExplorersWe believe Children are a vital part or worship at FBC! A lot happens in worship, so we do our best to keep children present in the service for as much of it as possible. However, preschoolers thru 2nd Grade are invited to leave the sanctuary right before the sermon to join in an activity based on the day's scripture lesson.

Adult ClassesHeritage: Intergenerational in makeup, in-depth Bible study and occasional study of current issues from a Christian perspective.
Fellowship: Members of the Fellowship Class value the spirit of freedom and openness that allows for honest discussion about challenging topics. Our study of the Bible together has helped us understand how our different life experiences affect our interpretation of scripture. We listen respectfully to views that differ from our own, and we have learned to be wary of absolutist claims. Class members and teacher suggest subjects for study. Recent topics have included “According to the Bible, what does it mean to live as the people of God?” and “Four notable Baptist figures in our history.” This fall we will explore how the Bible was used in the slavery debate and in the debate about women’s suffrage, and a visiting speaker will address the topic “Understanding Islam.” Pathfinders: Pathfinders is an inter-generational group that is led from a variety of perspectives in a quest to learn through discussion and conversation; we attempt to be non-judgmental while respecting the the four fragile freedoms central to Baptist teachings -- Biblical Freedom, Soul Freedom, Church Freedom and Religious Freedom. Typical class time is used to present information from a particular Biblical Text, Book or Specific Topic and then to have discussion around differing views of the significance of the discussion point. Recent conversations have been on: the Kingdom of God and how it is presented in various New Testament writings, Selected works by Dr. Rev. Martin Luther King Jr, currently studying and comparing the letters of 1 Peter, James, and Hebrews. Recent studies have included When Religion Becomes Evil by Charles Kimball, Upside-Down Kingdom by Donald Kraybill, Daniel, and the Apocrypha and Writings from the Septuagint found in some Christian Bibles. Friends: Designed for women, offering a balanced spiritual and social atmosphere, while providing active supportive group discussions. (All ages.)
