The Discovery Group (room 105 & 107) will be studying what Christians believe during the 10 am Sunday School hour. The study will review the historic Apostle's Creed and Nicene Creed plus other affirmations of faith published in the United Methodist Hymnal. These creeds and affirmations of faith will be compared with our Articles of Religion and Confession of Faith published in the United Methodist Book of Discipline. An overall review of how we live out our faith will be discussed and tested using the Wesleyan Quadrilateral. Although this sounds like a heavy discussion, it will be presented to encourage open discussion and sharing among those participating. Questions? Contact Curt Sylvester at heritage1667@comcast.net.
