FALL COURSE REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN

Courses beginning on September 4

Beginning September 4, AHUMC will offer a number of different staff-led courses throughout the week. 

All of our courses are available for free to anyone who is interested. The only exception is that some courses do require the purchase of a book—and even that shouldn’t be an obstacle to participation as scholarship assistance is available. 

We hope you will consider joining at least one of the courses at ahumc.org/learning.

COMMON SPACE: A SUNDAY MORNING DIALOGUE

September 8, 2024

Join us for a weekly dialogue and exploration of the biblical stories—both the ones you know and love and the ones that seem to confound and confuse. This is not a lecture or a book study.  There is no homework or assigned reading.  Through active and participatory conversation, we will get to know each other and learn together as we wrestle with the questions that exist on the tips of our tongues and in the depths of our hearts.

WOMEN'S MINISTRY AT AHUMC THIS FALL

September 24, 2024

Life isn’t a trek up a summit. It’s more like a vast ocean, full of new opportunities for meaning and discovery but also danger and uncertainty. In this often-choppy surf, a pyramid is of little use. Join leaders Rev. Priscilla MacDougall and Lynn Juel on this journey toward a new metaphor for the the transcendent experience of becoming “fully human.”
