CLASSES OFFERED:
New Members’ Orientation Class

Haven of Strength – Dr. Stephanie May
Overview: Haven of Strength was created in 2015 by Bishop Stewart and the Late Lady Navoria I. Reese. The class was initially taught exclusively by Lady Reese on-site at Bethesda Cathedral. From the beginning, it became clear that the course would be enhanced by providing opportunities for the class to study and present quarterly topics that would benefit both the teacher and the students. For over two years, the course met in Lady Reese’s office. Beginning in 2020, the class met virtually using the platform our Superintendent, Sis Zackery, provided. Each week, speakers offer a lesson designed to lift the fallen, strengthen the weak, comfort the feeble-minded, and restore the wounded hearts.
Our Purposes:
-To Lift the fallen
-To Strengthen the weak
-To Comfort the feeble-minded
-Learn to Stand still in the midst of a battle (storm)
-Strive for Excellence in every aspect of our lives
-Restore the wounded heart

Prayer Essentials – Elder John and Evangelist Lometia Pitts
Overview: There is incredible power and potential in prayer. Through prayer, we invite the God into a situation and into our lives. Prayer changes things, but even more prayer changes us. Through prayer, we have the opportunity to reach our full potential in Christ. The disciples said to
Jesus, “Lord, teach us to pray.” As we grow in our prayer life, we become more alive and more engaged with what God is doing. None of us are perfect at prayer, but as we take steps to grow spiritually in our
prayer life, the impact is incredible. God will move mountains and God will transform us into people of love, joy, and peace through prayer. This class will help you strengthen your prayer life.
Truth Seekers – Elder Allen Powlis
Overview: A truth-seeker asks questions and wants to understand the scriptures. If you are a truth- seeker and you have a deep seated desire to dig deep into God’s word this is the class for you to learn about the New and Old Testament.
