St. Michael’s Adult Education

Relaxed Summer Bible Classes

Father Rod will be leading two different short summer Bible classes.  The classes will take place after the 10 a.m. Sunday service; start at 11:15 a.m. and last 1 hour.  Clild care will be provided.  The first class will be given June 6 and 13.  This is wonderful class for those who are new readers of the Bible, as well as for those who may be faithful readers of the Bible and would like to become grounded in the ways Anglicans have read Scripture from the time of Tyndale and Cranmer.  The second class will be a reading and discussion of the Gospel of Luke.  It will last 6 weeks and begin July 4th.  Please call the office, e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
