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. We look forward to spending an hour of study in the Bible and other materials, with frank and open discussions about the implications of Jesus and our beliefs for living in today's world.
- Our 2023-24 class year begins Sept 10, 9-10am, in the "New Life in Christ Room," across the hall from Martha Manahan. Woodie Wood will lead us for the first 6-week session.
- If you would like to be a part of a group of friendly people, if you are interested in growing in your faith and your understanding of what it means to follow Jesus today, we think you would enjoy our class.
Why not try us? You may find some fellow seekers that could give you a hand along the way of your journey.

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, [email protected] or 410-848-8325, x14, or Jonyae Curry, Director of Youth Ministries/UMYF, [email protected].
