Adult Sunday School
We have two ongoing classes for adults: the ADULT DISCUSSION CLASS and the NEW LIFE IN CHRIST CLASS. The classes usually run in six-week sessions, changing topics and leaders for each session. It is not necessary to attend a class at the beginning of a session.
  • The Discussion Class is a smaller group that studies and discusses in an informal, friendly setting.
  • The New Life in Christ Class is a larger group and usually opens with a presentation or video, and then breaks into smaller groups for discussion.
Nursery
Our Sunday morning NURSERY is staffed by well-trained paid-staff and dedicated volunteers who enjoy caring for infants and toddlers. The nursery is open for all services to assist parents with children age 4 and younger and our sign-in/sign-out system assures their safety  Arrive a little early to complete a registration form or register online by clicking here.  We always welcome new volunteers.  Contact:  Michelle Olson at M.Olson@wumcmd.org
Confirmation
CONFIRMATION is a special time in a young person’s life.  Here at Westminster, we offer confirmation for youth who are entering the eighth grade.  In confirmation we delve into the teachings and practices of the Christian Faith.  

In addition to participating in the classes, confirmands are required to be in worship once a week, participate in youth group, and also participate in a mission opportunity. 

Our pastors and youth directors will be responsible for teaching our classes and each confirmand will have the opportunity to chose a mentor.

For information regarding current or future classes, please contact Pastor Malcolm, m.stranathan@wumcmd.org or 410-848-8325, x14.
