Class 201 – Discovering Spiritual Formation

Salvation is a life-long journey of being transformed into the image of Christ. Such transformation does not happen automatically, it entails an element of intentionality on our part. In class 201, we will explore various spiritual practices that will facilitate transformation in our lives by increasing our awareness of God’s presence and our pliability to His will.

Class 301 – Discovering Ministry

The goals for Class 301 are: to discover one’s unique design that leads to developing one’s God-given gifts and talents for service to God and others and to commit to serve in one or more ministries of Palm Valley Church. After each department head gives a brief overview of the department’s ministry and its specific opportunities for service, the class ends with personal interaction with leaders of the church, which leads to involvement.
