Opportunities for Fellowship, Growth, Edification and Ministry

Sunday School

Sunday School – 9:30 AM.
Some think Sunday School is just for Children. Yes, we have Sunday School Classes for all ages of children, but there are also five different Adult Classes. The Word of God rightly divided is central to the ministry of ABC. Sunday School provides a relaxed atmosphere for fellowship and opportunities to ask questions. Each class also has regular activities ranging from Bible Studies, Corn Boils, White Water Rafting, Family Gym times, Bowling nights, and more and more.
