Education for Adults

Adult education at Gethsemane helps individuals grow in their knowledge of God’s word and what God is doing in the world. Studying God’s word and wrestling with tough questions within the context of the church both lead to growth in faith. The community of believers is a secure place to explore our spirituality and Gethsemane offers a variety of faith formation opportunities for adults. Whether you have been involved with church throughout your life or are new to the Christian faith, we welcome you. For further information on adult education programs, contact Terri Siebert, Director of Learning and Family Ministries.
