We are a small but faithful group of three members dedicated to the faith formation of adults—and the entire congregation. This past year, we spent time clarifying our objectives and discussing a book entitled "Five Practices; Intentional Faith Development." We would like to focus on one or two specific goals each year. One goal is to offer an opportunity this fall, especially for our newer members, to gather and discuss the fundamental beliefs and ideas of a congregation such as ours, as First Church of Christ, Congregational, UCC. Another goal is to provide opportunities for spiritual growth, perhaps by creating a devotional booklet for members to use at the beginning of meetings, as well as an Advent or Lenten booklet of prayers and writings by church members and friends. We welcome suggestions and ideas, as well as one or two people who will join our Task Force.

There are currently two ongoing Adult Education groups: the Thursday morning book group, and the Sermon Discussion group that meets on Sunday mornings following the 9:00 a.m. service. Everyone is welcome to attend these groups for any of their gatherings.
