Summer Choir
Rehearse 9:45 a.m.
Sing for the 11:00 a.m. Service

Come sing with us!

If you are a rising ninth grader or older, we would love for you to try the Summer Choir. We rehearse each Sunday in the Chancel and sing for the service. You do not have to be with us each Sunday. Sing when you are in town.

If you have wanted to give the choir a try, now is your chance. We'll be glad to see (and hear) you!

For more info, please contact John Semingson, johns@nashvillewpc.org or Dale Nickell, dnickell@nashvillewpc.org

Adult education classes start at 9:45 a.m.

Covenant Class • Fellowship Hall

Please join us for an exploration of Mary Shelley’s classic novel, Frankenstein. Shelley claimed that she wanted to tell a story about “the mysterious fears of our nature.” We will interrogate what those fears entail, including our thirst for knowledge, our ambitions, and our inner psychological battles. At the same time, we will consider our essential search for familial and social responsibility, and most importantly what it means to be a creator, THE creator, and our limitations to bring light and benefit to mankind.

Led by Sue Trout.
