Because everyone has many varied gifts and interests, the co-op class benefits from the participating adults using their talents to enrich the class. This years classes are called A Journey through Gods Greats!! This is a seven month co-op class. You can participate in all the classes or pick and chose what classes you would like to go to. The theme of all the classes are the great things God has done in this world. From the amazing world He created to the beauty of the music of the classical composers. What ever class or combination of classes you choice the focus will be God, godly character and His hand in our world along with the main topic of study. We look forward to journeying though Gods wonders.
