Our Sunday School classes meet throughout our building at 9:30 on Sunday morning. All classes are friendly and welcome visitors from all walks of life. If you would like to visit a class, it would be best for you to park behind our building and enter from the rear. There will be someone at the door who will greet you and point you to the right place.
