ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL

We offer a variety of Adult Sunday School Classes so that everyone coming to TUMC can find a welcoming group of people for study, discussion, fellowship, and fun. Our classes meet in-person, but several classes offer a hybrid style of in-person and zoom. Hybrid classes allow those who are not ready to meet in-person to participate in the class online. Joining a hybrid class will enable you to see and be seen, to hear and be heard. All classes meet from 9:45-10:45am. Below you’ll find descriptions of all our current classes.
