Community Learning For Life

Community Learning For Life classes are designed as a resource to the community because we value helping others grow and develop personally as well as spiritually. Courses are offered during the week in various practical skills and hobbies, usually free of charge.  They are presented by leaders who have a passion to share their skills and expertise for the benefit of others.

Inviting Others
