Mount Hermon Sunday School Study Groups
Mount Hermon Sunday School has a rich tradition and history. It continues to be a core time to build relationships and grow in our walk with Jesus Christ. Our classes provide a more intimate setting with smaller numbers leading to impactful discussion and growth. Connecting with our mission to Sprout, Grow and Bear Fruit, our ultimate goal is to enter our community as more focused and fruitful individuals.
Sundays begin with our optional Coffee Fellowship and then our Sunday School groups take center stage. Families and individuals have many choices to engage in the Gospel of Life.
Classes are provided for all ages from 9:45 to 10:45. Children’s Church is provided during worship for ages 4-8 along with a nursery for the younger children.

| Little Sprouts (our youngest children) | Peggy Mason | Educational Building (nursery downstairs) | Year-round |
| Believe and Blossom (elementary-aged children) | Stacy Lee | Educational Building (upstairs) | Year-round |
Mount Hermon provides a Sunday School class for grades 1-4 called “Believe and Blossom.” Our class focuses on teaching our young children all about God by reading about His miracles and how He wants us to be more like Him. Our class begins with prayer and praises followed by a lesson. Our children enjoy crafts that go along with the lesson. We also provide a class for them on Wednesday nights from 6:00-7:00 pm where we enjoy fellowship with one another and a lesson. The more they know about God, the more their belief in Him can blossom.

A growth group (grades 5, 6, 7, and 8) called “Simple Faith” is available on Sunday mornings from 9:45 until 10:45 am.

This is a very interactive, enthusiastic class with male and female students. This same class also meets on Wednesday nights to focus more on scripture memorization and Bible trivia.

| Multiply | Steve Couch | Educational Building (upstairs) | Year-round |
Our Multiply study group welcomes all ages and was named after the book Multiply by Francis Chan. Originally started as a “College and Career” class, it naturally became home to some “core” Mount Hermon congregants and then our Orange County Correctional attendees. It’s a diversified group and a blessing as we share with one another through our study of different books of the Bible. Lessons are very discussion-based, focused on real life issues and challenges as we grow in our faith walk. Currently, this class is working through the book of Acts.

Fall Series: “A Light for My Feet” – tips from God for living a life that works and fulfills
God longs to forgive and heal. He has also worked very hard to give us guidance so that we and the people we love can live healthy lives–lives that don’t need quite so much healing! Using the book of Proverbs as our “handbook,” we’ll explore God’s instructions for sex, family, watching your words, money, and life in general that remain as practical today as when they were first given thousands of years ago. When it comes to life, are you thousands of years behind the curve? Come catch up.
