Why attend Sunday School?

There are two reasons to attend a Sunday School class; knowledge and fellowship. We all need to grow in our knowledge of the Bible which causes our faith to grow. And there is no better way to learn than with others that you can relate to and share with. So if you would like to grow in your knowledge and relationships, joining one of our classes might fill your need.
