THE CLASS MEETING
Reclaiming a Forgotten
(and essential)
Small Group Experience
Tuesdays, 12:00 - 1:15 pm
Conference Call Number (720)830-9745
(No Access Code Needed)
The Class Meeting
is a historic Wesleyan discipleship practice organized by John Wesley designed to deepen the spiritual life of participants by encouraging members to develop very deep, loving, spiritual, accountability relationships with God through Jesus Christ and with one another.
The early class meeting began by asking participants the questions:
"How is it with you soul?" In today's idiom, the questions become "Is it all good with your spiritual life today?" or "Is everything good in your personal relationship with God and your neighbors?"
The first two weeks of class were held before the church closed because of COVID-19. The remaining classes resumed on
Tuesday, July 7th
. The world has witnessed several life-changing events since we last worshiped in the church on March 8, 2020.
How is it with your soul right about now?
Call in at 12:00 pm on Tuesdays.
Rev. Mildred Gunn, Class Facilitator
