It’s not always clear what path Christ wants us to follow or how He really wants us to live. But the more you know about the bible, the easier it is to understand His will. Understanding the bible truly helps guide us from day to day.
Almena United Methodist Church is dedicated to providing education of the bible, how to read it, the lessons we can draw from it, and how to apply our learning into our daily comings and goings in order to lead more fulfilling, God-centered lives.
From toddlers to those who qualify for a senior citizen discount, Almena United Methodist Church offers Christian Education for all ages. Following are a list of classes that are being offered. Although it is ideal to start from the beginning of a class, you are certainly more than welcome to stop by at any time to discover what a particular class has to offer you

The Middler’s Class teaches a child how to use the bible as a daily
tool. Students will learn how to use the bible by finding the books,
chapters, and verses. They will learn of various stories, such as,
miracles, healings, parables and the stories of Christmas, Easter and Paul.
Human Geography and maps will be woven throughout the lessons while learning
about the history, times and events that took place in both the Old and New
Testaments. Pre-history will be mentioned followed by creation along with
the stories of the Patriarchs, Ten Commandments, the first Kings and
Prophets. A short lesson on the Psalms and Proverbs will also be held.
A personal relationship with Jesus is what we hope to instill in each
child and we welcome your child to this great adventure that can be found in
Sunday school. |

The Book of Job
Meets in the Fellowship Hall
Is your life not turning out the way you expected it too?
Are you frustrated by stock answers to complex questions?
Are your friends giving you advice that magnifies your pain?
Do you have a grievance against God because of your suffering?
Have you noticed how there is sometimes little correlation between the wrong we commit and the pain we suffer? Join this class to prayerfully study through all of the above questions and more. The Book of Job goes beyond dealing with suffering. It holds solid truth about our relationship with God, with others, and with a complicated world. |
