Christian Formation Opportunities

Adults

Want to grow, become a better person? Who doesn't?But sometimes our image of the life of faith is one of arrival, of settling in, of not growing. To be a Christian, we may conclude, is to reside comfortably in one place. We at St. Georg’s prefer the image of Paul the apostle, where he speaks of our always moving forward in spiritual maturity. The God who began a good work in you, he wrote, will carry it in on to completion.

We believe that adult Christian formation (that is, education) happens in a climate of expectancy for ongoing learning and growing. We know we are all unfinished, so at St. George’s we are nourishing a culture of becoming lifelong learners in the Christian faith. We have recently adopted a theme for our coming year of education: Deepening Our Discipleship: A Lifelong Process.

Adult class offerings vary with each season or semester. Most adult classes gather around topics or themes. Many of these opportunities happen Sunday morning at 10:05 a.m., while others, such as weekday Bible studies, Wednesday evening programs, or Companions in Christ small groups meet at other times.

Youth

Please visit our Youth Page to see our thriving youth ministry. We have classes on Sunday mornings for grades six through twelve as well as a full calendar of programs and events throughout the year. The youth program remains very active throughout the summer, and our youth ministry team makes a special effort to stay in touch with our college students. Please feel free to call the church and ask to speak with Kay Neal, our Youth Programs Coordinator at youthprograms@stgeorgesnashville.org.

Children

St. George’s Sunday School program is called Christian Formation and is held regularly from 10:05 – 11:00 during the regular program year (Labor Day through Memorial Day). Classes meet on the first and second floor of our Christian education wing. You may also call or email Joanna Williams (385-2150, Ext. 243 or joanna.williams@stgeorgesnashville.org), our Director of Children’s Christian Formation, for more information. She will be glad to explain our Christian education offerings for children and, if you’d like, give you a tour of the facilities. Information is also available on our Children's Page.
