Christian Education

St. Elia offers numerous opportunities for Christian education throughout the year.

Children’s Church School

On Sunday mornings from October through May, following Holy Communion, our children and teens split up into groups according to their age for church school instruction in our parish hall.

  • School Age Classes are taught by Mr. Joseph Turner
  • Middle and Senior High Classes are taught by Reader Aaron Gray

Adult Education

Questions & Answers
At the end of Liturgy, adults have a chance to engage in an informal question-and-answer session with our pastor about whatever topics happen to be on their minds.

Book Discussion Group
Our discussion group is currently reading “The Mountain of Silence”, by Kyriacos C. Markides.”  Please check the Weekly Bulletin for updates and meeting times. See Reader Aaron Gray with any questions or suggestions for future books.

One-on-One Instruction
One-on-one instruction with Fr. Don is also available for new inquirers into the faith. Contact us to find out more.
