What a long rich history Kenmore United Methodist Church has in Christian Education for adults. Through Sunday morning offerings and weekday adult classes, there is an array of opportunities for you to choose from. We desire you to seek ways that best fits your needs to grow in the way that leads to life, through Jesus the Christ! If you are not a member of a class, try one. You may go to a class for a short or long term. You may attend different classes. Our prayer for your intentional faith development is:

Dear God, teach us to rely not on our wisdom or understanding but on the truth you have shown us in Christ. Help us to be in Christ a new creation where everything has become new! Amen!

You will note the various classes, persons to contact, and place and time of meeting below. If you need further information, please contact: Deacon Bonnie LeValley at 875-5091.

Creator, use me to spread your peace.
Let me overcome prejudice, jealousy and mistrust.
Let me plant the seeds of love, compassion, and forgiveness.
If I have hurt or caused suffering, please forgive me.
And where I have been hurt, let me forgive.
Where there is need, let us be angels.
When there is hopelessness, let us offer support.
When there is darkness, let us bring the light of the Lord.
Holy Father, help me focus on the concerns of others rather
than my own issues.
Let it be less about me and more about others
For you get back what you give.
May we know the good feelings that come from forgiving.
Because it is in forgiving that we are forgiven.
It is in dying that our souls live forever..
