Education
We have children's Sunday School during the second half of the service, and adult education (tab.edu) after coffee hour (typically 11:45 am to 1:00 pm). Child care is provided during tab.edu.
Children's Sunday School
Tabernacle Sunday School is a small group of young people who explore how God is working in our lives. We begin with a time of sharing, proceed into a story from the Bible with a related activity, and end with prayer.

New Series November 2 - November 30, 2008 : Trans.edu
Have you ever wondered about the "T" in LGBT? Have you been confused about what it means that transsexuals are popping up in the news and television all over the place in 2008? Do you have questions about gender differences and don't know where to ask them? Or do you just wonder what folks at Tab think about transgender issues?
Tab.edu will be focusing on Transgender concerns during the month of November, in honor of Transgender Day of Remembrance (November 20). Chris Paige and Chris Purdom will be facilitating. Topics for the last two weeks will depend on how the first three weeks go. We may watch Call Me Malcolm and discuss. Or we may delve deeper into topics that people still have questions about. Join us for as many sessions as you can. Virginia Mollenkott claims that all of us are actually transgender. You never know, you may learn something about yourself that you never knew.
November 2 - Sex Development and Intersex
You may be surprised to find out how infant sex development actually works and how similar we all are! (Intersex Solidarity Day is November 8.)

Let's sort through the vocabulary and diversity. Transgender, Transsexual, Crossdresser, Transvestite Drag Queen, Gender-queer, Intersexual, and more!
November 16 - Transgender and Faith Communities
How transgendered is the Bible? How trans-friendly is Tabernacle? What are the challenges that transgender people face in finding a spiritual home?
