	Quarterly Gatherings for Newcomers Watch for announcements about the church's ministry staff hosting a Newcomers lunch following a Sunday morning services.  This is a great opportunity to meet the staff and other individuals, couples and families that are new to the church.
	New Community Sunday School Class We offer a 6-week newcomer adult Sunday School class to allow newcomers to get to know other new people in the church, learn more about our church and its ministries, and begin to get connected in our church family.  This class is led by Pastor Don Leigh and is offered at 10:30 in the Gym classroom.
	Adult Sunday Schools In our church, many relationships are formed and cultivated through involvement in one of our ten different adult Sunday School classes. Classes vary in format, teaching style and age ranges. See the Sunday Worship Guide bulletin for details. If you have questions on which Sunday School would be right for you, please talk with a staff member.
