Adults at Christ Church enjoy a dynamic ministry that includes a variety of formation classes offered on Sundays at 10 am during the fall and spring. All ages are invited to participate—similar to Sunday School at other churches.
You can attend the same class all semester or hop between the classes!

Cursillo is an opportunity to grow in faith and in spirituality. In the Diocese of Alabama, Cursillo begins with a three–day weekend at Camp McDowell. During these three days, lay people and clergy share their experiences and perspective on a variety of topics related to the love of God, the Christian life and Christian community.
Through Cursillo we seek a deeper understanding of the teachings of Jesus and how we can serve Him. We work together to share God’s love and encourage each other to persevere in carrying out our Baptismal vows. Cursillo starts with a three day weekend, but the best is yet to come!
Weekends take place 3 times each year at Camp McDowell in April, June and October . One of the best ways to decide if Cursillo might be right for you is to talk to someone who has attended a weekend! Let us know you’re interested and we’ll connect you
