A Place to Belong...A Place to Become! Sunday School

Dear Sunday School Guest, I am so glad that you are looking for a Sunday School class at Wake Forest Baptist Church. We have great classes for every age level and would love to help you find one. In this brochure you will find a list of all of our classes as well as a map to help you find their location. Before you choose one, let me share the new Sunday School design we are using. It is called Dual Sunday School/Dual Worship. Because we have grown so much in the last few years, we have had to design a new Sunday School format. This design has a Sunday School at 9:30 AM and another one at 11:00 AM. Depending on what class you want to attend, we need to outline when each Sunday School class meets and when the corresponding worship service begins. Track 1 (Yellow Track) 9:30 Sunday School & 11:00 Worship Preschool Sunday School Children s Sunday School Apprentice Class (Co-Ed 25-35) Barnabas Class (Co-Ed 55-70) Branches Class (Co-Ed 35-55) College/Young Adults Class (18-25) Deaf Class (Co-Ed all ages) Faith Growers Class (Co-Ed 50-70) Friendship Class (women 65-95) Grace Class (Co-Ed 55-80) Seekers (Co-Ed 70-90) Single Adult Class (Co-Ed all ages)

Class members who will support and encourage you. We look forward to having you in Sunday School today. Find a greeter to help you find your way to a great Sunday School Class. In Christ, Jo Ann Stancil Minister of Education & Administration
