United Methodist changes schedule, offers new classes

Community United Methodist Church, 1470 W. Hanley Ave., will begin its new Sunday schedule this weekend, beginning with the 8:30 a.m. contemporary worship and the 11 a.m. traditional worship. In between services there is now a ‘Tween Time that offers classes and Bible studies for adults, choir practice, Kid Community for ages 4 through fifth grade and United Methodist Christian Youth Sunday Shine for youths in grades 6-12.

Adults can choose from several different studies, “Experiencing God: Knowing and Doing the Will of God,” and “The Five Love Languages,” by Dr. Gary Chapman. Women can also choose a class based on the book “The 10 Smartest Decisions a Woman Can Make After 40,” by Tina Tessina. “The Five Love Languages of Children,” and “The God of Continuing Creation” will be offered beginning Sept. 19.

Kid Community will hold an open house Sunday so all kids and parents can come together to meet the class leaders and learn about some of the new activities and lessons for the year.

For more information on any of these CUMC classes or activities, call the church at 765-8800.
