Every Sunday morning, groups of adults meet in FUMCFW Sunday School Classes to enhance their spiritual growth and enjoy fellowship with other Christians. We have classes for a variety of demographic groups, with many different class personalities and styles.

While many of our Adult Sunday School classes are resuming in-person meetings, others are continuing to meet via Zoom, including:

Open Door | First Talks | Good Neighbors | Veriditas | Loyalty | Inquirers
New Horizon Singles | New Passages| Koinonia | Foundations

If you are interested in participating in any of these classes, please contact Rev. Linda McDermott (lmcdermott@myfumc.org) for information on dates, times, and zoom links.
