First United Methodist Church Burleson

The Adult Sunday School at FUMC Burleson seeks to promote and enable individual and relational growth toward a full understanding and experience of God’s purposes for us as revealed in Scripture and in Jesus Christ. Many classes are offered for persons in varying ages and stages of life. Classes form a close bond as a community within the church. The actual content and teaching style will vary from class to class as all seek to further their study of the Bible. A full listing of our Adult Sunday School classes follows:

A small diverse singles class interested in growing. Their curriculum is the Upper Rooom plus any seasonal or appropriate study material as decided upon by the class.

Our class is made up of "young at heart" senior citizens, both singles and couples.

We study the Uniform Series International Bible Lessons for Christian Teaching and we have an excellent panel of dedicated teachers.

We have a social once a month; and some of our members attend the Troubadours, a group of retirees who meet each first Monday for a meal, games, socializing and special events.

Several of our members volunteer at Huguley Hospital and Harvest House. Others are active members of UMW.

Our class contributes to the Spring Fling, Fall Festival, Missions, Methodist Home, Aldersgate, Holiday Friends, Little Red School House, and other special needs of the church.

The goal of the Servitors class is to provide the best of adult Christian study in an atmosphere of love and fellowship. We care for each other, our extended families, and our church.

Our teachers are outstanding. We rotate with four or five dedicated to the task and have guest teachers occasionally. There are different teaching styles but all offer challenging and thought provoking classes - we don't always agree and that is OK. Disscussions are lively, often with humor, but always with a goal of better understanding of ours lives as Christians.

Without revealing ages we will only say that we have Parents of Teenagers, Grandparents, Retirees, and other categories. Married or otherwise are present and welcome.

We also provide opportunities for Christian fellowship through social activities about every three months. Events may be a ball game, a tour of industry, special events, or a home gathering. There are weekly coffee gatherings, lunches, or a girls night out.

The co-workers are an active adult sunday school class. This group sings praises and shares their faith. We welcome new visitors and new members to come and share their faith with us. We use alternate instructors to teach our lessons.

We are a bible study class with discussion. We are of variable ages and comprised of singles and couples. We have class parties bi-monthly. We participate in the Fall Festival, Mission Trips, UMW, Sweat Shop, Quilting and Chamber of Commerce Luncheons. We contribute to the Harvest House, Methodist Childrens Home and other needs that arise.

Most of our class consists of parents of elementary age children or younger. We invite newly weds, single parents and singles.

We are a kid friendly class! Most, but not all of us, have children who are probably in Sunday School with your own children.

We enjoy the fellowship of Christians and look forward to meeting more members of the chruch and community. Visit the New Beginnings web page.

The FaithBuilders are a diverse group of adults that come together to study a mixture of traditional biblical and contemporary life lessons. We are active in all areas of the church ministery and many community projects. Everyone is welcome to join us in our quest for truth and knowledge or just to visit with us at a social gathering.

This class is a group of men and women seeking God's call on their lives. We are of varying ages, we are single, divorced, married, and widowed. We are different and exciting. We do our own thing. We use study material from various sources including the Bible, books written by well known authors, and study guides. More importantly we share our opinions, our ideas, and our faith with one another. Discussion is an important part of our class.

We are known to let our hair down and have fun. We laugh with each other, we cry with each other and we are always there to love and support one another. If you are looking for something out of the ordinary look us up....we'd love to have you join our circle of love and friendship.
