Sunday School
We desire that each of our members grow and mature as people who love Jesus and follow Him daily. We meet for Sunday School every Sunday at 10:00 to encourage one another toward this end. Sunday School provides an opportunity to gather with others for a time of small group discipleship that includes prayer, Bible study, and fellowship.
Descriptions of each of our classes are included below. If you need additional help getting connected, fill out our contact form or email us at media@hsbcpickens.com. We’d be happy to arrange for you to visit some classes to find a good fit for you.

Home Improvement
The Home Improvement Sunday School class is for adults in all stages of life who seek to glorify God through the development of their home and family lives. Our class has a wonderful rotation of teachers from different backgrounds who share Biblical truths and how to apply those to your life.

Encounter
The Encounter Class is mostly composed of adults ages 55 and older, but all are welcome! We enjoy studying together and discussing each week's scripture passage, asking questions, and deep-diving into God's Word. Our class has an ongoing fund (donations by choice) that we use to support mission efforts as needs arise. Prayer requests are always shared, as well as praise reports. This class is a place where you will feel welcomed and appreciated.

Children & Youth
In Sunday School, children and youth learn foundational truths from the Bible and how to apply those to their young lives. They also share in friendship by praying for one another and by participation in age-appropriate activities, such as crafts and games. Sunday School provides a wonderful place for children to gain biblical wisdom and knowledge and learn more about developing a meaningful relationship with God and other children.
