The goal of our Sunday School program is to provide an engaging learning experience incorporating stories, songs, activities and fellowship. The program is open to all children through 8th grade. High school students are welcome to join us as helpers. We have recently learned about using prayer to ask for help for ourselves and others, choosing our words carefully, appreciating our beautiful world, and finding out how Christians are like pumpkins! Plans for the Advent & Christmas season including stories,crafts and skits are under development. As a congregation, we rejoice to once again have the energy, insight and laughter of children among us. Sunday School takes place from 9:45 to 10:30 a.m. during our morning worship time, which begins at 9:30.
On the 4th Sunday of Advent, our Sunday School children presented their version of the Christmas Story. Three short skits re-enacted Mary’s visit from the angel, Mary’s conversation with her mother about impending motherhood, and the reaction of the manger animals to all the excitement.
Children’s Sunday
We celebrated our Sunday School year with Children’s Sunday on June 2 – a worship service with children providing the readings and participating in the music. Sunday School 2024-25 will “Kick-Off” on September 15th. Join us for fun and learn how we share the love of Jesus in our world.
