Adult Education


Adult education is a new area of growth for Good Sam. For a number of years, we have supported programs such as Cursillo as well as study sessions during Lent. We also have special sessions for people who wish to join the Episcopal church.

We've added adult education offerings on Sundays at 8:30am and 11:00am in the central area in Roetter Hall, unless otherwise announced.

The Adult Education Lecture Series contains downloadable mp3s from past classes.

Other opportunities for adult Christian education include: bible studies for Young Adults and Parents of School Age Children and our small groups.
