Your Lay Servant Ministries team is excited to announce seven courses for the 2025 Spring Quarter (March-May)!
With four online options and three in-person classes, there’s something for everyone. This quarter offers a variety of opportunities, from exploring the basics of lay ministry to sharpening skills in areas like public prayer, worship, and preaching. You’ll also find classes that focus on personal prayer and ministry with older adults.
