EDUCATION AT GRACE
Grace Lutheran Church is made up of people set free, through the
death and resurrection of Jesus, who are now free to follow the Holy
Spirit's call into ministry in the world. Grace's staff supports
everyday ministry working together as a team with all the members of Grace
encouraging and supporting members in their ministry through fellowship,
worship, service, outreach, and discipleship.
Power Hour
Power
Hour is an education time when the POWER of God is experienced in a
wonderful way, during the HOUR between
Sunday worship services at Grace. This is one of
the most important ministries at Grace, and it takes place
from 9:40 am
to 10:30 am. Students
learn about Jesus and grow in their faith through storytelling, games, art
and music. Power Hour is divided into:
Children of the Spirit (age 3 through 1st grade),
Kids of the Kingdom (grades 2 – 6)
Teens
in Christ (7th – 12th grades).
Several times a year, most Power Hour Students meet together for
Kicktime, and experience a time of learning in yet another
exciting way.

Confirmation
Following
our rich Lutheran heritage, GLC sets aside three years for special religious
training with 7th, 8th and 9th grade
youth. This program of worship, education, fellowship opportunities and
service projects is intended to lead a young Christian to be able to affirm
their desire to continue to live in a relationship with God, first
established at Baptism. At the end of their confirmation experience,
on Reformation Sunday during their 10th grade year (the
last Sunday in October), they profess adult responsibility for their own
faith journey. Classes meet on Wednesdays, September through May, and
include worship time, large group presentations and small group discussion.

Adult Education
We
never get too old to learn more about God's love. An adult class is offered
during the education hour,
(9:40 – 10:30am) every Sunday,
from Sept – May. Additional opportunities (like Bible studies, circles,
discussion groups and more) are also offered periodically, with details
announced in the Ways of Grace, the Ministry Minutes. This
ministry also oversees GraceTime, Individual
Spiritual Growth Opportunities and the Library ministries.

Gracetime
The
Adult Education Ministry provides this weekly opportunity to study,
discuss, learn or reflect about some dimension of our faith-life. It is the
Adult component of Grace’s education ministry, beginning at about
9:40 am (after grabbing a cup of coffee and/or treat) and ending
around 10:30 am (in time to attend the late
worship service). Classes are usually held in the Laurel Lounge, but
are sometimes relocated to the Chapel. Both of these spaces are
found on the main floor, in the office wing.
CBS
Community
Bible Study is a non-denominational, weekly (September through May)
opportunity for women. It is a
wonderful time to worship, learn and
fellowship. Call Becky Guetter (238-1390) for more information.
