Forum Adult Sunday School Class
The Forum Adult Discussion Class engages in current and interesting topics, related to issues of faith in our modern world. We are open-minded and welcoming to all who might have serious questions about their beliefs. Each week our goal is to have a high-quality presentation and a high-quality interactive discussion where people discuss & listen to each other.
All Are Welcome!
Arizona/Mexico Border
Sun May 28, 10:00 am, Room 307 & via Zoom
Hear Pat Becker discuss what it is really like at the Arizona/Mexico border. A lot of negative information has been in the press about the southern border, but six members of CUMC were joined by members and pastors of the Northern Illinois Conference to see for themselves. Join us on Sunday to hear what is actually going on.
