Adult Faith Formation


Wonderful Wednesdays

Each Wednesday during the school year, we join together to share a meal, fellowship, and faith-filled conversation. All ages are invited to gather from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in the Centenary UMC Basement while our building is under construction. During our time together, we often sing, share conversation, and participate in planned activities with one another.

The dinner is provided! All you need to do is show up. We also ask that you RSVP if you can to help us plan for dinner. We hope that you will join us! For more information and to RSVP, reach out to Kristin Ream at kream@granpres.org.

Wonderful Wednesday gatherings have paused for the summer and will tentatively begin again on Wednesday, September 2 from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. In the meantime, check out our Events page to connect!

In recognition of the 250th anniversary of the nation’s founding, PRISM will spend time this summer exploring classic texts that speak to the soul of America, including the Declaration of Independence, the Gettysburg Address, “America the Beautiful,” Emma Lazarus’ poem “The New Colossus,” and Frederick Douglass’ speech “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” All are welcome!

Adult Small Groups

Each group provides an opportunity to connect with God, one another, and who God is calling all of us to be! Groups engage various studies that guide their time and conversations together. We value diversity of thought, and look forward to growing alongside one another. Classes vary in topic and duration throughout the year. Everyone is welcome to attend these classes.
