Sunday School Classes

At Hernando United Methodist Church, the heart of who we are is in making disciples of Jesus Christ by reaching in through worship and Bible study, in order that we may then reach out. 

Sunday school is one of the opportunities to study together and grow in faith. We offer a number of opportunities for persons to grow in their understanding of the truth of Jesus Christ and to cultivate a sense of community with others.

A Sunday school class provides an informal atmosphere in which to study the Bible and other Christian materials. It also affords an occasion to meet new people and build relationships. We invite you to review our list of different classes. Choose one or two that interest you and visit them until you find one where you are comfortable.  Come early for coffee and fellowship at 9:45 a.m.   Class begins at 10:00.  

Fellowship
Teaching duties rotate between class leaders and invited teachers. The main approach to teaching is lecture.  This class enjoys informal fellowship gatherings and also supports local and global mission projects.  Come early to meet and greet.

Rich with history, this is one of the oldest continuous Sunday School classes in the church.  Along with the day's lesson from the Adult Bible Series, a lively discussion might also be had about events in Hernando as well as national politics as these men (40's-90's) enjoy meeting together.
