Education
Education happens at UBC in a variety of ways, including:
-
Forums
-
Bible Study
-
Children's Church
Forums
These happen every Sunday from 11:30am-12:30pm in the Lounge. The forums are on topics of interest to the congregation but can vary from an informal getting to know you session for new people to a more formal lecture on a topic of interest.
Bible Study
We offer two bible studies: one that meets from 11:30am-12:30pm on Sundays in the church library, and one that meets the first and third Saturdays at 9am on Zoom. These groups usually looks at a particular book of the Bible taking several weeks or months to investigate the nuances and teachings of the book. Bible study is open to everyone!
For Children
Children are a central part of life at UBC. Children of all ages are encouraged to be in the service up until the "Children's Time" when the pastor spends time talking to and praying with them. After this, children up to age 10 can go to the nursery where they are cared for by two paid nursery staff. The older children have a Sunday School lesson each week, while the younger children have "circle time" in the nursery where they hear a story and sing a few songs.
