​Adult Christian Education at PMC

Fall-Winter-Spring Quarters / 2017-18
TEACHERS: Britt Carlson & Marcus Upton
LOCATION: The Old Chapel
​This fall, join us as we begin a new Bible study curriculum, Disciple. Over the course of 34 weeks, Disciple covers the entire Bible (Old and New Testaments), following the biblical story from creation to the new Jerusalem. With excellent historical background, thoughtful questions, and an eye to the whole arc of Scripture,  Disciple is designed to help you understand not only the context of when the biblical texts were written, but more crucially, what God might be saying to you today through Scripture’s witness. If you are new to the faith and want to understand the basic message of the Bible, or a long-time Bible study participant, Disciple will invigorate, challenge, and renew you and call you to greater discipleship. Come check out Disciple for a day, a quarter, or the entire year.
Spring Quarter / 2018
LEADER: Andrew Glick
LOCATION: TBD
A six-week class discussion on how food, transportation, consumerism, and housing choices affect climate change. How does the Mennonite commitment to simplicity and peace-making inform our responses to this crisis and how are we as a PMC community responding to caring for the environment?
 
This class will run for six Sundays from April 29 through June 10.

What is Faith Formation?

Faith Formation at Portland Mennonite Church strives to form a bridge between our Christian faith and everyday lives. Our programs are intended to invite people of all ages to grow in faith.  At PMC we are striving to be an Anabaptist community, together, with our children, by the grace of God, that is shaped by the life of Christ, that acts with the compassion of Christ, and worships in the name of Christ.
