Emanuel United Church of Christ An Open and Affirming Congregation of the United Church of Christ

Study & Learning

Emanuel Church offers a Sunday school class for small children during the 10 a.m. worship hour. Activities include Bible stories, songs, and craft projects. Young people are always welcome at Emanuel Church!

Currently we are studying Luke's gospel, the source of most of this year's Gospel readings. Luke's gospel particularly emphasizes the universal scope of Jesus' ministry among both Jews and Gentiles, and God's love for those on society's margins, particularly women and the poor.
