Your Lay Servant Ministries team is pleased to announce six courses for our 2024-2025 Winter Quarter. Winter is the perfect season to settle in with a warm drink and deepen your learning from home. Five of our six classes are online, including a self-paced course. Soul Reset will be offered as a two-week journey that invites you to slow down, look inward, and reconnect with God. For those who prefer in-person learning, join us for the UM History class in the Capital District, or take a peek at the in-person courses being planned for our spring quarter (below).
Whether you’re pursuing certification or simply want to grow and fellowship alongside other UMC laity, we have a class for you!
