Gain a deeper understanding of your faith and its impact on your daily life in this class that is open to all adults. There are often outside speakers as well as MPPC clergy and staff who present. Topics range from faith journeys and Christianity expressed through art to current issues and what we have in common with other religions. There is also time set aside for service and fellowship outside of class.
