Adult Education at LOUMC
Lake Orion United Methodist Church offers a variety of adult study opportunities. Adult study groups are an excellent way to get to know others in the church while strengthening your faith. *Please note that when public schools are closed for inclement weather our classes will be cancelled.
Adam Hamilton Summer Study Classes
Over the summer, we will be holding two short term (5 and 6 weeks, respectively) classes. Both are Adam Hamilton studies – Unafraid (exploring the relationship between fear and faith) and The Walk (encountering and engaging in spiritual disciplines for the Christian journey). There will be three class options during the week: Monday evening at 7:00, and Tuesday and Wednesday mornings at 10:30 in the overflow room. Each session is an hour and a half in length, with a brief video at the beginning and a light amount of weekly reading.
We have already ordered the books, and will announce when they are available in the office so you can purchase them there. (If purchasing books at this time is a hardship, please let me know; I won’t allow that to hinder your participation.) Unafraid is $19, while The Walk is $16. Sermons through the summer will be based on these books as well. So if you can’t attend class, but would like to follow along, we will make sure there are enough. If you would like to participate in either or both classes, please call Pat Matthews in the office, or leave a message, letting her know which day you will attend.
Since it is summer, we understand people will have to miss sessions for vacation (although we’ll also have a Zoom option if you want to attend from your cottage!), so don’t let missing a week or two deter you from participating.
*In the longer-range plan… my hope is to continue in the Fall with several short-term groups led by others (some of whom have already expressed interest in doing so), and also circling back to the beginning of the Disciple Series to pick up new Disciples. The more we can engage in these small groups, the healthier we will be as individuals and as a congregation, making caring connections and growing in faith. So let us take on The Walk of faith Unafraid!
