Discipleship

 


Discipleship Team - Doug Tracy and Mary Hellen

The Discipleship Team has several on-going programs which include the Sunday School, Vacation Bible School, Children's Church, Adults Seminars, the Alpha program as well as summer book groups.

Adult Sunday School - The Network Course. Sundays at 9:30 AM October 5th - November 9th.
"Stir up the gift of God which is in you." 2 Timothy 1:6
            God’s thumbprint is on each of us from the time we are born.

            Through the power of your own personal story, The Network Course takes you on a wonderful journey that assists you in discovering your spiritual gifts, your style, and your passion. At one time or another you might have taken a simple, one-dimensional inventory to determine your spiritual gifts -- and may have questioned the accuracy of the results.  That's why the Network course uses four assessments: experiences, traits, convictions, and observations) that measure your strengths from different approaches -- better enabling you to identify your God-given talents.  An additional assessment allows you to gauge the effectiveness of your ministry and whether you are best employing your gifts.  The course is an interesting and fun way to discover your gifts and your passion for doing the Lord's work.  We think we know ourselves but it is good to examine from a different path and find the unique identity Christ gives us.  Even if you think you already know what your spiritual gifts are, we encourage you to come to this six week course and reexamine the ways God has shaped you and enabled you to share in the body of Christ. 

Adult Sunday School - Israel Experiences - 11/23 - 12/14

In 2002, Barbara Emery-Geiger and Doug Geiger traveled on their own to Israel for over three weeks.  They will be sharing their experiences and reflections in a four-week adult Sunday School class November 23, 30, December 7 and 14th.  Each class consists of digital pictures shown from a laptop computer along with video clips, a handout of Biblical verses for the places seen and lots of things to pass around.

            Doug and Barbara are members of Central Presbyterian Church in Longmont and have traveled many times in the middle-east, including Greece, Cyprus, Crete, Egypt, Jordan, and Turkey.  They both teach Bible Study classes at their church in Longmont.  The classes will be:

Class 1 – Nov 23 – Caesarea, Land of Israel museum, views of Tel Aviv, Jaffa, Acre/Acco, the Golan Heights, Banias (Caesarea Philippi and waterfalls), Tel Dan and the Good Fence (Lebanese border).

Class 2 – Nov 30 – Sea of Galilee (Ginosaur Jesus boat, Capernaum, Loaves/Fishes church, Beatitudes church, Yardinnet baptism on the Jordan River), Bet-Shean Roman and Byzantine ruins and Megiddo (Armageddon).

Class 3 – Dec 7 – Jerusalem – Israeli and Wohl museums, Church of the Holy Sepulcher for Orthodox Good Friday and the Easter Saturday Flame ceremony, the Armenian patriarch and church, Western Wall and under the Wall tour, Mount of Olives, souk shopping and the Via Dolorosa.

Class 4 – Dec 14 – Masada, Dead Sea, Timna Egyptian copper mines, tabernacle replica, St. Katherine’s Monastery in Sinai Egypt and Petra in Jordan.

            We hope you can join us and hear and see the modern and ancient Holy Land.  Maybe you too will be inspired to visit Israel soon!


CHILDREN'S CHURCH - SUNDAY SCHOOL

Children's Church is the alternative worship for our young children ages 4 - -entering 3rd grade. Everyone benefits from this. The children come away with a message specially designed for their own age with faith building activities. Janet Gotfredson and Nancy Clark teach the preschool class, Karen Mayer teaches K-2, and Sandy Madura and Laura Swanson teach grades 3-5. Susan Bailey regularly employs adults and older youth to assist the younger ones in worshiping God in their own, active way. Rosemary Bogart is an important volunteer for the weekly 10:30 service group.

We are looking forward to another exciting year and are pleased to have several church families represented in our classes. We are blessed to have all staff members returning this year.

Karen Davis has served the Broomfield Community as director of Presbyterian Preschool for five years and has been a teacher here for 17 years.
Our teachers - Susan Vogel, Connie Gordon, and Sandy Cicotello - have over 30 years of experience teaching children.
Our staff holds college degrees in teaching. All have Red Cross and CPR certification and take a minimum of nine hours each year to remain current in early childhood education.

We are located at the Presbyterian Church of Broomfield on 350 Main St. We use the nursery, kitchen area and downstairs fellowship hall. We leave the rooms clean and ready for use the next day and we would ask that you please do the same if you use them in the afternoon or evening.

Our Philosophy
Ours is an educational program focused on early childhood development. We help your child develop a firm school readiness foundation. Through the use of developmental and exploratory methods, each individual child is allowed to progress at his or her own rate. Our group size of 10-12 students provides socialization opportunities and helps develop interpersonal relationships. Our flexible structure encourages self discipline in children and fosters eager learners. We want every child to know learning is fun.

Please keep our students and teachers in your prayers.
