One Day Class for Lay Servant School
To help all Lay Servants keep in compliance with the new Book of Discipline we have set up classes for June l, 2013 and hope to offer them again the beginning of Aug.
The classes will be held at the Paradise U M Church in Mt. Pleasant from 8:30-5:00. There will be a few breaks during the day and a 1/2 hour lunch. Lunch will not be provided, so please bring your lunch.
Rev. Steve Moore will teach UM Polity and Rev. Brenda Shaffer will teach Let the Whole Church Say AMEN! Leading in Prayer. If you are taking Rev. Shaffer's class, please bring with you a Bible, Text book, note taking materials and a copy of a church bulletin from the previous Sunday.
We will require a pre-registration by May 15th so books can be ordered. When you register, please indicate what class you are requesting. The cost of the class will be $15.00 - to cover the price of the books.
About a week after registration the books will be available at the District Office. If you cannot pick up your book, please ask the District Secretary to send your book to you.
Anyone taking a class is required to read the book BEFORE coming to class. We are trying to get 5 weeks of work done in 1 day, so we need your co-operation.
We are asking all Pastors to let their Lay Servants know about these classes.
A variety of classes will be offered at the Lay Academy, scheduled on Wednesday evening and Thursday morning of Annual Conference. Both laity and clergy are encouraged to attend.
