Faith formation is a lifelong endeavor. Adults meet during the Education Hour following worship for forums in the social room to explore a variety of topics, including bible study, spiritual disciplines, mission and service, contemporary issues, and more. Leaders are members and guests.
Journey through the Bible
This year (2021-2022), we are taking a journey through the Bible. Together, we will discover its wonderful stories and go deeper in learning about this ancient text and its often surprising meaning and relevance for our lives today. Throughout the year, we are offering gatherings, readings, activities, and resources to explore the Bible at your own pace and level of interest. Monthly in-person education hours (which will also be offered online) are scheduled eight times throughout the year: Sept 26, Oct 31, Nov 21, Jan 30, Feb 27, Mar 27, Apr 24, and May 22. In between the in-person sessions, we suggest readings to do at home, and will also send links to videos and other resources which tell the stories in different ways. Our biggest hope is that we'll all find new and wonderful ways to bring the Bible into our daily life, sharing it with family and friends, and reading it in private study. You can find the reading guides and video links here.

Lenten studiesWestminster’s Soup and Study series is a long-held tradition, meeting together for five Wednesday evenings during Lent to share a simple soup supper followed by exploration of a Lenten theme. This year's Soup and Study series will be held via Zoom, and will explore how we encounter God through common objects. Participants are invited to read Jill Duffield's book "Lent in Plain Sight" although it is not required to participate in discussions. The series begins February 24 at 6:30pm.
