Grace U Class Schedule - Summer 2010

Purpose: The focus of Grace U classes this summer will be on Knowing and Connecting with God. Session 1 will focus on four Scripture passages that challenge our meager understanding of God. Session 2 will provide some ways of better connecting with God. Finally, Session 3 will address some challenging questions about God.

Format: Classes will consist of a variety of teaching, discussion and small group break-outs. Given vacations and summer schedules, the classes will be stand-alone to the extent possible.

Schedule: Classes will be held in W1 at 10:30.
