MORNING FAITH EXPLORATION MINISTRY - Elder William Blatch, Ministry Leader
"And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers."  1 Thessalonians 2:13
 
The study of the Holy Bible is the central focus of our Sunday School Ministry. 
Each Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. to 10:15 a.m., classes for preschoolers, children, youth, and adults meet to study the scriptures, to experience Christian fellowship, and to explore paths of Christian service. In this context, we do more than learn about the Holy Bible. Our study is grounded in the strong belief that God's eternal truths as recorded in scripture can dynamically interact with the persistent needs and dreams that are a part of each person's life. We believe that the Holy Bible can inform our thoughts, challenge our attitudes, and inspire us to action!
