Sunday School Classes
Woodmont offers “traditional” Sunday School classes at THREE different times:
Block 1: 8:30am-9:30am.
We are offering a new Sunday School hour for adults and children! Continental breakfast with bagels and muffins will be offered starting at 8:00 AM in Drowota Hall followed by our 8:30 AM Sunday School classes. Grab some breakfast and join a class!
New Adult Sunday School Offerings:
The Gathering Class (Boardroom) – a space to come together for prayer, study, and community. We will begin by diving into the Gospel of Luke and following a study guide by N.T. Wright to grow our understanding of the text and share meaningful conversation. The class is especially geared toward parents in the season of raising children — whether little ones, school-aged, or teenagers — but is open to anyone seeking connection and fellowship.

Dinner For Eight Groups
Dinner for Eight Groups are formed twice a year – in August and in January. They meet once a month for FOUR months (September through December OR February through March) at people’s homes in restaurants, at the park – WHEREVER people are able to SHARE a meal and have conversation! This is the BEST way for those new to Woodmont to meet quickly others from church.
At the end of the “semester,” groups have the option to continue meeting or members may re-register for a different group to meet some other Woodmonters!
Registration forms are posted in August and January. Links may be found on the church website, the Sunday Bulletin, and the weekly Spire newsletter. For more information on Dinner For Eight Groups, you can contact Tammy Morgan, tammy@woodmontcc.org. You can also sign up for Dinners For Eight HERE!
CWF Circles
The Christian Women’s Fellowship (CWF) at Woodmont is a 200-member strong women’s organization that meets once a month as a large group gathering featuring a speaker and a luncheon. This occurs on the first Tuesday of the month.
The CWF offers a number of group meetings (circles) – many of which meet on the THIRD Tuesday of the month. Some of the groups meet at other times to provide members with varying options.
For more information about the Christian Women’s Fellowship at Woodmont and the groups available, please contact Martha Elzen – mcelzen@comcast.net.
“Life Groups”
WCC’s Life Groups are spaces to go deep and read and discuss a book, explore a topic of interest, have spiritual conversation, or simply discover ways to intentionally share life with others!
Life groups can meet monthly or weekly – that’s totally up to the group! Many book and topic groups are “short-duration” groups. They will meet for a set length of time until they’ve finished their study.
Others can meet indefinitely as deep friendships form. These groups can switch topics with each “season” that they are in and reflecting the interests of the group.
As Life Groups form, they are promoted in the Sunday Bulletin as well as the weekly Spire newsletter (email).
For more information on available Life Groups, you may contact Tammy Morgan – tammy@woodmontcc.org. Sign up for Life Groups HERE.
