1.  Spiritual Growth: For the Love of God: John's Letters
2.  Geographic Mission Study: The Beauty and Courage of Sudan
3.  Social Issue: Joy to the World: Mission in the Age of Global Christianity

The same studies are offered to children and youth at an age-appropriate level. Childcare is offered for very young children.
