Our emphasis is on Christian education, which helps prepares us to serve Christ in the world around us. In addition

to weekly services, adults will typically have seven different educational opportunities to choose from on Sunday mornings. Most classes run from August to late May, while other adult classes continue during the summer.

​

Classes run from 9 am to 9:45 am, giving you enough time to get to the 10 am service!

​​​

Here is the flyer for the 2025-2026 Sunday School Year.

Members and guests alike are encouraged to find a class. If you are new to Shelby Presbyterian, you are invited

to visit any and all classes before deciding on the format and topic that best suits your interests and needs.
