Adult Education

Broadway is a friendly, lively, and diverse community where you can learn, grow spiritually, and get to know new people.

We believe the Christian journey includes being immersed in scripture, developing spiritual disciplines, and engaging the teachings of the Christian tradition, from the early church fathers and mothers to contemporary theologians. We offer a variety of adult formational experiences as vital and diverse as our congregation.

Sunday School & Small Groups 9:30 am

Whether you are looking for a bible study, book discussion, or conversation about the intersection of faith and social justice issues, there is a Sunday School Class or Small Group for you at Broadway! Some groups are formed around age and life stage, while others are intentionally intergenerational.

More important than any study or topic of conversation, we believe that this Sunday morning time is about having a group to share life with.

Congregational Care

In the Hebrew Bible, God says, “I love you, I have called you by name. When you walk through the deepest, darkest waters of life, I will be with you.”  We hope that Broadway can be the kind of church that offers this kind of reassuring love to everyone. Our community offers compassion in a variety of ways:

Stephen Ministers

Stephen Ministers are trained volunteers who provide one-to-one care to those facing a life crisis or challenge, including grief, hospitalization, terminal illness, separation, divorce, or unemployment.For more information email: Fran Patterson.

Life Enrichment Ministry

Life Enrichment Ministry programs promote opportunities for personal growth, creativity, and a more abundant life for people 55 and older.For more information email: June Parish

Shepherd Ministry

Shepherd Ministers call members on their birthdays or anniversaries of joining the church, write notes to those who are ill or confined to their homes, contact those who have suffered a loss, and pray for those who are ill or grieving. For more information email: Kristen Riggsby

The Blessings of Christmas & Easter

In December and during the week leading up to Easter, volunteers make blessings baskets which bring cheer to those confined to their homes and no longer able to worship at Broadway. For more information email: Bob Madeja

Grief Service

Do not hurry
as you walk with grief
it does not help the journey.
Be not disturbed
by memories that come unbidden
let God support you.
Be gentle with the one who
walks through grief.
If it is you,
be gentle with yourself.
Swiftly forgive
walk slowly
pausing often
Take time, be gentle
as you as walk with grief.
—Unknown

Each year we offer a Service of Comfort and Healing for those who are dealing with losses of all kinds, be it the death of a loved one, loss of employment, loss of relationship, or loss of direction.
