Adult Sunday School

Adult Sunday School classes at FUMC Plano are intended to give members a chance to affiliate with a small group for learning, mutual support, and service to the church and community. Each class has a different size, character, and learning style. New Sunday School classes aimed at other demographic groups will be started throughout the year. Keep checking this page for news of new Sunday School classes.

Below you’ll find a listing and description of the current adult Sunday School classes available. If you’re looking for a group to join for learning, making bonds of friendship and support, and mutual service, consider joining one of these classes. If you’re not ready to make that commitment, you’re always welcome “just to visit,” too! Contact Rev. Rebecca Grogan for information regarding Sunday School classes.

Disciples in God’s Grace (D.I.G.G.)
40s-50s, Room 211
The Disciples in God’s Grace (D.I.G.G.) class is a compassionate and loving class, diverse in life experiences and passionate about our love of Christ.  We have fun and lively discussions around the topics we study, which range from current life and spirituality, growth both spiritually and secular, and in-depth studies of the Bible.

Eleventh Hour
60+, Room 210
The 11th Hour Sunday school class is comprised of individuals and couples who are interested in extending our faith journey through lessons, studies, book and video based instruction. We are discussion oriented. Lessons are led by various members and by outside leaders. We have two outside socials per year that are get togethers as well as fund raisers to support our various philanthropies. The average age is 70s although we have regular attendees ranging from 30s to 80+. We are welcoming and are always interested in adding new members. We try not to be too serious and enjoy each other and exhibit a well developed sense of humor as a group. We love and support each other as we are passing through our life experiences.

Families in Faith
40s-60s, Room 219
The Families in Faith began as a group of families with young children. Now most members have college-age or older children (and grandchildren) and have both married and single members. Class members also support or participate in mission/outreach programs each year. Their weekly class typically includes sharing joys and concerns and a lesson, usually led by a class member. These are typically a multi-week study of a published curriculum or book and often include a video series. Studies range from traditional Bible studies to contemporary Christian topics.  Some members also develop original curriculum about topics of particular interest. This class is full of laughter and with lively and spirited discussions.  All are welcome!

First Ladies
Adult Women 35-65, Room 116
Adult women gather to learn from Scripture with lively interaction.

Inquirers

Purpose Seekers/Reflections

This class offers a welcoming space for young adults to reconnect with old friends, catch up on life, and build meaningful relationships during a time of transition.

The Mix
20s-30s, Room 215
The Mix is a group of adults born in the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Many of our members have children of varying ages. Our discussions revolve around current topics and how to navigate this thing called life through the lens of God’s grace. We don’t think of ourselves as a class, but rather friends and family. We enjoy a monthly lunch out and events together like volunteering and our annual Christmas party.

Vanguard
50+, Room 112
Most of the Vangard class members are in the 50+ range, both married and single. Class structure and organization includes a rotating president, treasurer, prayer and praise list, roster update list and various members handle special events and projects. Class studies are led by various members of the class, and from time to time outside teachers lead in certain studies. This is a class that participates so discussion is encouraged. They have occasional social activities and participate in outreach and mission projects such as Plano Santas, School Supply Ministry, Youth Mission Trips, Reach Out Honduras and others. They welcome anyone who would like to attend and join their class.
