C.L.A.S.S. -
Christian Life and Service Seminars
Staff Leader: Jennifer Rader
C.L.A.S.S. is an acronym for Christian Life and
Service Seminars. Each CLASS in the series is offered
in a two-session format of two hours
each.
C.L.A.S.S. 101 is the first of the four
classes in the series and answers the question, “Why
is membership important?” 101 covers the beliefs,
philosophy, and structure that make Trietsch the
church it is. Even if you are
already a member of Trietsch or do not know if you
want to become a member, this CLASS is a great
way to get to know our church. CLASS 101 is usually
offered the last Sunday and first Sunday of each
month – but because of the Super Bowl on February
4, we will offer 101 on Jan. 21 and 28, from 5 to
7 p.m.
CLASS 201 is the second class in the
series and addresses the question “How do I become
more spiritually mature?” 201 explores four basic
habits/disciplines that can help believers grow in their
faith. CLASS 201 will
also be offered Jan. 21 and 28 from 5 to 7
p.m.
C.L.A.S.S. 301 answers the
question “How can I minister to others?” First, CLASS
301 helps individuals identify their personal
talents/abilities, articulate their dreams/passions, and
discover their God-given spiritual gifts. Then
individuals are guided through a process for
discerning ministry opportunities for which they are
well-suited – and from which they will find great
personal satisfaction. CLASS 301 will be offered Feb.
23 from 6:30-9 p.m. and Feb. 24 from 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Dinner will be provided
on Friday night and breakfast will be provided on
Saturday morning.
C.L.A.S.S. 401 is the final
class and answers the question “What is my mission
in life?” Sharing the good news of Jesus Christ is
every Christian’s responsibility and privilege. 401
focuses on how each of us in our own unique way
can share the good news with others, via our words,
our actions, our activities, and our influence. CLASS
401 will be offered this Spring.<br><br>Sign up for
