FAQs
Answers to Common Questions
- Are there prerequisites for taking the classes?
No, these classes are designed for any adult at Metro desiring to understand the foundational pillars of our church.
- Can you take classes simultaneously?
Absolutely, feel free to take as many classes that fit into your personal schedule.
- Why do some classes require a registration fee?
We request a small fee per person to cover administrative and preparatory costs, materials for the facilitator(s), and small honorariums for our "faculty" who lead each session; paying a fee also further challenges the registrant to remain engaged throughout the course.
- Where will the classes take place?
We will offer them either in-person at our East Falls church location, or virtually through interactive livestream.
- I desire to take a class, but may not be able to to attend all of the scheduled sessions. May I still participate?
Yes, you can attend the classes you are able to attend, and receive guidance toward makeup sessions or reviews for any classes or material you may have missed.
- How will I be notified of the virtual sessions?
After you register, the facilitator(s) will reach out to you via email with confirmed times and links for the interactive virtual sessions.
- What if I cannot pay for a given class?
Please do not let finances prevent you from participating; email registration@metrophilly.org, and we will provide a way for you to audit the course.
