Our Sunday School program runs during the school year and consists of two parts: worship and age-appropriate lessons. Our intergenerational worship services are designed to help children engage in the service and feel welcome as part of the body of Christ. The age-appropriate lessons range from teaching Bible stories to relating those stories to current day events. These lessons are led by caring adults who guide the youth in exploring God’s word.
Our Sunday School program begins with the children participating in the first 30 minutes of our worship service. We believe that in order for the children and youth to feel comfortable worshiping in the sanctuary as an adult, they need to spend time in the sanctuary while they are growing up. On most Sundays, the children and youth leave the worship service mid-way through. On a few special Sundays throughout the year like Easter, the youth remain in the service for the whole hour and do not have Sunday School.
ATTENDANCE/REGISTRATION
Regular attendance at Sunday School is a powerful tool in developing faith and strongly encouraged. However, children are welcome in Sunday school regardless of how often they are able to attend. Visitors are always welcome. For safety reasons, we ask that parents fill out a separate registration for each child. These will be kept for confidential reference by teachers in case of an emergency. A visitor registration form (click "Pre-Registration Form" link below) must be filled out by a responsible adult before new or visiting children can be left in the care of the Sunday School staff.
