Learning is an important part of Belmont Baptist Church. We hold dearly the opportunity to “love God with our minds” as we study the Bible and other books together. Sunday School is offered to individuals of all ages along with other opportunities during the week.
Sunday School
Classes Consist of the following:
- Nursery: Meets in the Fellowship Hall.
- Children: Meets in the Fellowship Hall.
- Youth & Teens: Meets in a classroom in the chapel.
- Adult 1: Meets in the class room located behind the piano side of sanctuary. This is a loosely-constructed class with a wide age-range that enjoys a seminar-style of learning as opposed to a traditional lecture or Bible-study style. There is a lot of conversation, give-and-take and freely expressed opinions, all done with love and good-natured humor all around.
- Adult 2: Meets in the sanctuary.
- Senior Adult Class: Meets in the classroom located behind the organ side of sanctuary.
Crossroads (Prayer time and study)
Wednesday evening is a time for Bible or topical study where we discuss biblical truths and how we apply those in our lives. Some of our studies have included, ‘The Purpose Driven Life’ by Rick Warren, ‘Redemptive Responses of Jesus’ by Howard Roberts, and ‘The Misunderstood Jesus: 10 Lost Keys to Life’ by Clyde Fant.
Tuesday Morning Bible Study
Tuesday Morning Bible Study meets each Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. in the fellowship hall of the main building, for a time of Bible study and fellowship. The study is led by Janet Shiflett, a retired school teacher, who also teaches the Senior Adult Sunday School class. Specific books of the Bible are chosen and studied verse by verse.
Children
Children of all ages are an important part of the Belmont Baptist Church family. Sunday School is divided into specific age groups so that their is an optimal learning environment. With caring and committed teachers our children are able to explore Bible stories and have a fun and safe time doing so. Sunday School meets from 9:30-10:30 a.m.. During the worship service we have a nursery for infants and toddlers. Preschoolers through 5th graders join the beginning of the worship service and are invited forward for a children’s moment with the pastor. Following the children’s time they depart to the education wing for an age appropriate time of Bible story, music and plenty of fun with loving and prepared adults who teach them.
We also offer a variety of seasonal opportunities for children and families to enjoy together.
Youth & Teens
Teens in grades 6-12 have opportunities that are directly for them that include a Sunday School class, Bible study, fellowship outings, and mission projects. Attending PASSPORT summer camps and Youth Evangelism Conferences have been a highlight for the Belmont Youth.
