Get plugged-in with these great Sunday School opportunities.  Small groups are a way to meet new church members, to get involved in community outreach activities, or simply to walk closer to Jesus Christ.  Each Sunday School class is geared toward specific age groups or interests, and is self-taught by your fellow church members.

Covenant Seekers

The Convenant Seekers class is a group of young to middle-age adults studying current events and how they relate to Christianity.  Several class members teach on a rotating basis, and our class is currently led by Dr. Gary Thorne.  Our Sunday school class is always accepting new members. We are located in room 208 in the Education Building. We hope to see you soon!

Koinonia Class

Our Koinonia class is a multi-generational Sunday School that meets on the 3rd floor from 9:45 to 10:45 on Sunday mornings.  We are currently discussing the book Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference? by Philip Yancey.  We have volunteer facilitators for each week's discussion and also have group social events throughout the year.  We welcome newcomers and visitors to the church every Sunday.

Faith Study

Faith Study is a class where men and women, primarily over 50, come together to enjoy faith and fellowship. Sunday morning classes are discussion-oriented, open-forum style presentations. Faith Study uses a variety of materials from the common lectionary readings as well as Advent and Lent focussed lessons. We also explore spiritual, social, and moral issues of today. The class enjoys serving our church through outreach and service projects.

Fellowship Class

The Fellowship Class invites people who are curious about the Christian faith and want to apply it in their daily walk with Jesus Christ.  Currently the class is using the International Sunday School Lessons and has team teachers.

Teachers:

  • Dr. John Mackey
  • Dr. Alice Smith
  • Dr. Fletcher Womble
  • Yvonne Gale

Prayer List

The Fellowship Class of the Hay Street UMC is considering ways to strengthen the class's ministry within and beyond the local church. Class members want to remember one another in supportive and intercessory prayer during periods of convalescence and life threatening illnesses.  To be remembered in supportive and intercessory prayer:

  • Family members who are convealescing and undergoing treatment.
  • Our service personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan.
  • Please continue in prayer for this year's Confirmation Class and their mentors.
  •  

"It's a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord." - Psalms 92:1

Father, we are thankful that hostilities have diminished in the Middle East. We pray for peace and prosperity for all the people of your world. Amen.
