Adult Education
There are a variety of adult class options throughout the year:
Seasonal Book Study classes: Invite a friend or neighbor and join the class for an all-church book study during the church seasons of Advent and Lent, as we prepare to celebrate Christmas and Easter. These seasonal studies include curriculum for children through adults, and all are welcome to participate.
New Members Group: for the newest members of the church. Join other new members and continue your journey of discipleship as we consider next steps in the spiritual journey and development.
Adult Bible Study classes meet periodically during the year to study particular books of the Bible, themes of the Bible, or characters of the Bible. Prior scriptural knowledge is not required.

Sojourn: A Young Adult Ministry
Sojourn is back for the fall! This ministry for people in their 20s and 30s will have its launch celebration on Wednesday, September 4 at Dewey’s Pizza. During this time we’ll get to know one another and plan for what we’d like to cover in the coming year. Please RSVP by emailing Pastor Dom by September 2 at dominic@worthingtonumc.com
After this session, Sojourn will gather the first Wednesday of each month on Zoom and the third Wednesday of each month in the Dixon lounge. Our conversations will last from 7-8pm.
Around-the-Table
Get to know one another on a deeper level and build friendships, enjoy a meal and have fun. Interested people are organized into random groups of about 8 at the beginning of the year. Each group meets once a month for a meal, with group members taking turns as host. Each host has the choice of “making dinner, making reservations, or making plans” for breakfast, lunch, or dinner – so the meal may be at a restaurant, at the host’s home, in a park, at the church, or any other creative location! Contact the church office for more information.
Men’s Breakfast Group
The Men’s Breakfast Group meets on Zoom at 8 am on the second Saturday of the month for breakfast and a scripture discussion and how scripture applies to life today. Mark Rodgers leads this welcoming group. Please contact the church office for the Zoom link, office@worthingtonumc.com
Open Hearts
Open Hearts is about joining with others to open wide the doors of our hearts and minds to all of God’s children. Help address the needs of those who may feel marginalized, including people with disabilities and those with special needs. The group promotes being attentive to friends with special needs and participates in activities like walking in the Pride Parade and singing in the Pride Choir. Meets on the 2nd Tuesday of odd-numbered months.
Worthington United Methodist Church Singles
Single and over 40? Then join in the fun and fellowship with other Worthington United Methodist Church singles. Dinner at local restaurants, tailgating at someone’s house or pizza and games at the church are examples of activities. There’s always something to do with this supportive group.
