Adult Education

St. Nicholas offers adult education series after Vespers on Wednesday nights in the fellowship hall. These classes are open to all, and will be beneficial to newcomers and long-time Orthodox alike. Two Catechism units are specifically offered for those interested in being received into the Orthodox Church (see below). Contact Fr. Matthew with any questions. See the Calendar for specific dates and times.

SUMMER
Faith and Food
This summer adult and family series is offered in June and July by members of the parish with a meal. We continue our practice of gathering on Wednesday night after Vespers; however, each lesson stands alone, allowing for summer travel.
