- Plan to attend one of our three Adult Sunday School Classes this Fall!
- All classes meet at 10am.
James Island Presbyterian:
Informed by the Past, Discerning the Future
This fall, all adults are invited to meet in the Fellowship Hall to travel through 310 years of church history here on James Island. Each Sunday will feature a repeat of the preceding Wednesday night's presentation. September 11th will feature Dr. Richard Cushman's presentation of the history of our denomination, the Presbyterian Church (USA), and our presbytery, Charleston Atlantic. In coming weeks, we will survey the years leading up to the Civil War, after the Civil War, and have a special panel presentation from lifelong members of living history here on the island. In addition, we will take a tour of our campus and hear from members of our sister churches. Finally, we will look to the future with a presentation and discussion led by our Vision Team.
Calling All Parents! Join us in the Faith Builders Class
We are building our faith, our homes and our careers together as we enter new stages of life. This fall, we will study Kara Powell's Sticky Faith Guide for Families and discover ways to help our children build faith that lasts. We meet in Room 303 on the first floor of the Christian Education Building.
Contact Cameron Smith (843-795-3111, x.203; or email here) for information about these or any other Sunday School question.
Join the Disciples Class as we walk through Acts with the first Disciples! We are committed to developing biblical knowledge, coming to deeper theological understanding and growing in our faith. This fall, we will continue our study of the book of Acts. Our class has members of many ages and stages of life including singles and empty-nesters. We meet in the church café in the Fellowship Hall. Contact Nancy and Kenny Tassin for more information (843-795-0407 or email here).
