2010 Sunday Seminars

The River of Grace Church has adopted a unique format for discipleship and personalized Bible study.  This format is called Sunday Seminars.  One Sunday evening a month, from 5:30 – 7:30 PM, classes are offered for individuals desiring further study into a specific area of focus.  There is no cost to attend the seminars.  Sunday Seminars reflect the ‘seminar’ format of the 70s and 80s that provided concentrated study on a focused theme while fostering a casual interactive atmosphere. Each course is designed with the individual in mind, in equipping people to be effective in life and ministry.  Teachers may include RoG’s Pastoral Staff, members from the congregation who possess skills and knowledge in areas of interest, and/or invited pastors from the greater Capital region who share a passion and area of expertise for nurturing and equipping God’s family.   Monthly classes are offered from September through May.  We invite you to attend a Sunday Seminar with us.
