Bible Studies/Sunday School:
Sunday 9:15 a.m. (September - May) - SUNDAY SCHOOL/UNDER FOUR DAYCARE
Target Audience: Ages 4 through 6th grade
Location:
Contact Person and Phone Number: Questions about our Sunday School program? Contact the Church Office at 920-739-9194.
Current Topic: As our children grow physically, growing in their faith and understanding of God’s Word is absolutely vital! Mount Olive offers Sunday School classes for age 4 (by Sept. 1) through 6th grade. These classes include Bible stories, crafts, music, and age-appropriate discussion and application of the truths of God’s Word. Sunday School uses a different curriculum than our Christian Day School, so each Sunday features a different Bible story not covered during the school week. Sunday School meets from 9:15am-10:15am every Sunday morning. Mount Olive also offers a daycare room with music, play, and structured learning for children under the age of 4 who aren’t old enough for Sunday School so parents can drop off their kids and attend Bible class themselves. Please make use of this resource for the spiritual growth of you and your children!
Sundays, 9:15 am – 10:15 am - Christian Decision Making
Target Audience: Adults

Contact Person and Phone Number: Church Office - 739-9194
Current Topic: Should I put my mother in a nursing home? Is it time to look for a new job? Is this the right girl/guy for me? Does God offer any help in making the right decisions? Yes, he does. This Bible class will examine the principles which God’s Word gives for making good, God-pleasing decisions in life. Bring your examples of tough choices and let God’s Word light the way.
Sundays, 9:15 am - The Book of Titus
Target Audience: Adults
Location: Sanctuary
Contact Person and Phone Number: Church Office - 739-9194
Current Topic: Even though Titus is one of the Pastoral Epistles, the last thing Titus is, however, is a book for pastors only! Come and read through Titus to see Paul's guidance to Titus, the holiness we have in Jesus, and the goodness the Holy Spirit makes us eager to do. Come and grow with Pastor Gawel as he leads a discussion of this book in the Sanctuary at 9:15 AM, beginning on Sunday, March 19.
Sunday 9:15 a.m. - A FAMILY GROWING IN CHRIST

Current Topic: This class gives a basic introduction to what the Bible and Mount Olive teach, along with a chance for you to ask questions, develop relationships with other people and the pastor. It serves as the path to membership at Mount Olive but is also a newly written class that serves as a great review for Mount Olive members. This class will meet on Thursday evenings and Sunday mornings with the same session being taught on both of those days to give people the flexibility to attend whichever session best fits their schedule.

Target Audience: Adults
Location: Commons
Contact Person and Phone Number: Church Office - 739-9194
Current Topic: Taming the tongue, persevering through trials, trusting God for tomorrow, growing in patience, experiencing the power of prayer—these are some of the real-life issues addressed in James’ letter to the early church. His words are as applicable today as ever. Come and learn how true faith shows itself in the Christian’s life. Pastor Zank leads this study in the Commons, every Wednesday at 9:00 AM. New faces are welcome!

Target Audience: Men
Location: Fireside Room
Contact Person and Phone Number: Church Office - 739-9194
Current Topic: Where does a man go to grow in his role as a Christian husband, father, man of God? Where can he be intellectually challenged, spiritually fed, genuinely encouraged, and yet still receive a bit of good natured ribbing? The answer: Mount Olive’s Men’s Bible Study. This fall we’ll be studying the Book of Revelation. Come and dig into this often-misunderstood book along with us. Before you do anything else on Friday, stop in to recharge your batteries with your brothers in Christ.
