Formation & Education

Learning in Community. Growing in Faith. Asking Good Questions.

At First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Washington, NC, we believe that faith formation is an ongoing journey—one that flourishes in community. Through Bible studies, book groups, open conversations, and shared reflection, we create space to deepen our understanding of scripture, spirituality, and life together.

Whether you’re new to faith or have been exploring it for years, our Formation & Education offerings are open, thoughtful, and welcoming.
