Sunday
School
We are a Christian people. We believe that Jesus
Christ is Lord. We believe that the Holy Scriptures were given by
divine inspiration inerrantly revealing the will of God. We look
to Scripture as the primary source of spiritual truth confirmed
by reason, tradition, and experience. Sunday School is a great place
to teach the vital importance of Scripture to our children, teens,
and adults and to disciple them in their Christian walk. Sunday
School remains one of the church's most powerful ways to affirm
the Word of God as the foundation for living the Christian life.
We are
a Holiness people. Sunday School is the place where disciples
of all ages can be taught and grow in holiness, enter into the experience,
and be guided in their process of becoming more like Jesus through
regular Bible study and personal spiritual accountability.
We are
a missional people. Our mission is to go and make disciples.
The goal of Sunday School ministries is to reach lost people for
Jesus. Through the Sunday School, we challenge all ages to be disciples
of Jesus Christ and to invite others to do the same. Sunday School
is the place where we help each other live the holy life through
mutual support, Christian fellowship, and loving accountability.
John Wesley said, "God has given us to each other to strengthen
each other's hands."
We
believe that Sunday School is the place to discover what it means
to be Christian, holiness people who are on a global mission to
reach and disciple people of all ages.

Adult Ministry
Through Adult Ministries, Richland Church of the Nazarene is actively
responding to the large and growing group of maturing adults within
the church's community we serve. The overarching purpose of our
focus is on the salvation and spiritual nurture, growth, and continued
service of this group within the context of each local church. Mature
adults are vitally important to our church. They represent an enormous
wealth of resources vital to the ongoing health and growth of our
local churches.
Richland Church
of the Nazarene recognizes the tremendous contribution mature adults
in many local congregations have already made during their lifetime.
Further, Adult Ministries emphasizes the significant ministry potential
that still resides within this group as we minister to, through,
and with mature adults throughout our denomination.
Friendship
Groups
Friendship
groups are a time of getting into God’s Word and learning
His truth’s. They are also a time to praise and worship God,
fellowship with one another, encourage each other in Christ and
pray for each other. The bonds that are formed in these groups are
long lasting and special.
