Sunday SchoolSunday School is the best way for you to get connected to our church.  It is more than just a collection of small groups. It is a place for Bible study, fellowship, and building relationships.

 It is age-graded so you can more easily find people like yourself.  Age ranges are suggested, not mandatory. You are encouraged to visit our various classes until you find the one that “fits” you the best. 

After visiting for a while, you are encouraged to join Sunday School as well as the church if you have not already done so. Please contact one of our pastors to learn more about church membership.

Welcome to Vista Grande!
