 The following classes meet on the second floor of the Christian Life Center:
 
The Vineyard Class (CLC 203)

     This class is a close knit group of loving and caring women.  They like to make new friends and there is always room for one more!  The Mary Martha class studies a wide range of curricula.  Contact persons are Cathy Palmer or Lee Ann Bauer.
 
Coffee with Ryan (CLC 205)
     One Sunday every 6-8 weeks, prospective members and visitors are invited to join Pastor Ryan Bennett for coffee and muffins.  We share faith stories and the expectations of church membership, then allow time to answer questions about Bethlehem or the United Methodist Church.  Contact person is Rebecca Little.
 
Omni Class (CLC 208)
     This class encourages lively discussion each week.  Class members rotate teaching responsibilities.  They enjoy Biblically based curriculum.  Contact people are Stan Tyson or Margo Woodruff.
 
The following classes meet in the main church building on the lower floor:

Contemporaries Class
     Most members of the Contemporaries Class have involved children in our children and youth ministries.  This group is active in church outreach – they host one night of Room in the Inn each month during the fall and winter – and they enjoy a good party.  Class discussions range from The Case for Christ by Lee Stroebel to The Screwtape Letters by C. S. Lewis.  They are currently studying Galatians, Ephesians and Philippians.   Contact persons are Sharon Brugman or Kenny Hawkins.
 
This class meets upstairs near the sanctuary:
