The most important thing about you is your relationship with God. Deepening your faith in Him during high school years will impact the rest of your life! This is what Confirmation is all about. If you’re a high schooler in grades 9-12, we invite you to join our 10-week confirmation class taught by David Gustafson, John Frederick (Pastor of Discipleship) and other engaging guest instructors from our congregation. We’ll learn about the foundations of Christian faith, wrestle with hard questions, and deepen our relationship with Jesus.

Baptized students who complete class requirements may participate in a Confirmation Service on June 2, 2024.

For more information, reach out to David Gustafson (Instructor) or Mike Weeks (Associate Pastor for Discipleship) 

Please REGISTER here.

Join us for this five-week class led by The Rev. Dr. John Frederick as we engage with J.I. Packer’s The Heritage of Anglican Theology. Packer, a leading Anglican scholar, priest, and founding member of The Anglican Church in North America, explains the history, theology, and current state of the Anglican Church.

For many, the doctrines of the faith are ideas meant to be memorized and recited. But memorization on its own is rarely memorable. Discipling our families into a living faith is only possible if we live out the faith together. How can we help our kids to cultivate this kind of living faith that connects the head and the heart? A faith that is not boring or dry, but engaging, life-giving, and even adventurous. How do we get from a memorized faith to a memorable faith? Join us as we explore answers to these questions together.

ADVANCE REGISTRATION REQUIRED - register by MARCH 6.  (SPACE IS LIMITED!)

John and Susan have long sensed a call from God to focus on the ministry of discipleship in the home through family life, marriage and child rearing. With 5 children and 21 grandchildren, they have years of experience and wisdom under their belts! Collectively, John and Susan have written 18 books, including Raising Kids With Values That Last.

Childcare is full.

Location Change: Back 40

Can we trust the Bible? Even the hard passages? Are old Creeds still relevant? How about Anglicanism? How does this denomination fit alongside others? And what about spiritual practices, or the Bible’s rules for living, or our call to serve others—how do all these fit together today? How does the Good News that Jesus died for my sins work itself out in my complex life in a complex world? These questions invite us back to the basics—the foundational truths of Christianity, and how these truths reshape every aspect of our lives.

Join TFCA Pastor of Discipleship, Rev. Dr. John Frederick, along with guest speakers, as we dive into these questions and more this fall. No prior reading is required and each class stands alone, so join us any time.

See the class syllabus for a weekly schedule of topics to be covered.  Click here to register.

Saint Paul wrote thirteen letters. Every word of them is Holy Scripture. But, they can be hard to understand! In this ten-week class, TFCA’s Pastor of Discipleship, John Frederick along with several special guest lecturers, will offer an overview of Paul’s writings by diving into ten themes at the heart of them. Join us as we not only seek to better understand Paul’s teachings on ideas like justification and election, but also ask how they impact our lives today. Each class is a stand-alone class and not reliant on the prior class, so if you miss a session, it’s not a problem. Simply come ready to learn, engage, and ask any questions that might come to mind. REGISTER HERE
