First United Methodist Church of Holyoke is offering a world religion study this fall, starting Tuesday, Sept. 13, at 6:30 p.m. Led by Rev. Paul Brunner, who has taught this course in church groups and at community college, this course will examine the basic tenants of the world’s great religious traditions to help people better understand their own faith. Everyone is welcome to participate.

How & Jam, the after-school program for elementary students in grades K-5, returns Wednesday, Sept. 14, from 3:45-5 p.m. at the Methodist church. Kids are invited to join in this fun and interactive Bible experience.
