Sunday School Classes and Small Groups
Our Sunday School classes and small groups are a vital part of
Discipleship at Mt. Sylvan.
We have Sunday School classes for every age group, and they meet Sunday
mornings at 9:30 am. Small groups meet throughout the week, both on and off
the church campus.
There's something for everyone! If you would like help finding the right class, contact the person listed below, or email the office at office@mtsylvan.org.

Youth Ministry
Sunday morning at 9:30 in the youth room
This group is open to all middle and high schoolers! We are following a curriculum called "A Year with Jesus." Students read a passage from Scripture and then discuss it together through some interesting questions. We're getting to know our friend Jesus together. If that's not enough to tempt your student, we often have doughnuts or other breakfast snacks :)
The class is taught by Lance Rogers and Allen Andrews.

SMALL GROUPS:
4Cs Class
Thursday mornings from 10:30am to 12:00pm
This women's group meets in person in the chapel and also via Zoom.
The name 4Cs comes from words we would like to have guide us as we strengthen our faith together: compassion, community, caring, and concern. Our group consists of confidentiality, purpose, schedule, acceptance, and praying for each other.
In the last few years, we have been studying The Upper Room Disciplines, a book of daily devotions that is published each year. If you are looking for a Bible study, please come check us out. We have a wonderful group who enjoy studying God's word and fellowshipping together.
