Adults
Everyone has an equal place in the life and work of St. Philip. We all have gifts God has bestowed on us to be used for the good of his kingdom on earth. Those gifts, as we experience them at St. Philip, lead us in a number of directions. This section gives you some idea of our current activities.
Sunday School
Learning is a life long process and we encourage all adults to engage in learning and faith talk. St. Philip offers two adult Sunday school classes for that very purpose!
Weekday Bible Studies
St. Philip offers daytime and an evening Bible study classes. In addition to the Bible, we use a variety of study materials including the Kerygma Program. For more information, visit the Bible Study page.
Groups for Adults

Book Club: The book club meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 10:00 am in the parlor. Books are chosen by the club from a wide variety of subjects and genres. The title of the current book can be found in the monthly newsletter – The Epistle. The books chosen are easily available in bookstores, Amazon and at the Wake County Library.

Please join us to discuss the book of the month and and enjoy fellowship.

Piecemakers Quilting
We make quilts for Lutheran WorldRelief and other needy groups. Quilt tops are made at home and tied at church. We depend heavily on the generous fabric donations from the congregation.

Puzzle Get-together
Do you enjoy working on jigsaw puzzles? Join us on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 10:00 am in the Music Room. We work mostly on 350 piece puzzles that we finish in an hour or two, but sometimes work on a larger puzzle over a period of 2-3 months. This is a relaxing way to spend the morning with good fellowship and a feeling of accomplishment at the end. Join us. You won’t regret it!

Trips: Souls Walking Around Together (SWAT) is part of the Senior Ministry team who organizes a variety of trips each year to tourist sights, government facilities, and schools. We travel to any place where we can learn something new. We enjoy fellowship during the travel time and sharing a meal together. It is a great way to get to know other travelers and learn something new. Guests are welcome to join us. Most of them are day trips. Check the current Epistle Newsletter for the next trip.
