Classes for
Children and Youth
Children age 3yrs to grade 6 are
dismissed to Sunday School classes following a children’s message
during the 8:45 am service (at approximately 9:15 am). Sunday School
classes meet until 10:30 am.
Curriculum for
younger age groups focuses on stories from both the Old and the New
Testaments and on the truths underlying those stories. For older
youth topics include discussion of weekly Gospel lessons, current
events, and life experiences. |
Learning is a Journey
Sunday
School can be thought of as a journey toward adult participation
in worship and Christian life—part of a lifelong faith journey.
The Sunday School part of that journey includes focus on stories
from the Bible, and rightly so. However, if children learn only
the words of those stories, we have failed. Yes, children do
need to
know
Bible stories; even more important, however, is that they
understand
what the stories mean
|
Because acquiring a mature Christian faith is a lifelong
process, Sunday School—in one hour a week—cannot provide all
that is necessary. Sunday School can provide the building blocks
for that life long journey of faith, but parents, grandparents,
caretakers and neighbors are privileged to help children
integrate those building blocks into the fullness of life.
