SUNDAY SCHOOL

The Christian Education program is an extension of our mission to help people grow in their relationship with God.  We believe Sunday School is an important element in the spiritual development, and children up through adult have the opportunity to hear the message of God’s love, outside of the worship service.

Sunday school operates from September to May.  There are classes available for everyone starting with the three-year old preschooler all the way up to an adult class.  We use the Faith Weaver curriculum in Kindergarten through High School, which shares the same bible lessons each week and allows for further discussion at home.  Our Sunday school hour runs from 9:30 – 10:30 every Sunday morning.
 

Preschool                  

We have two preschool classrooms serving the three and four year old children.  The focus in the classroom is to reinforce basic bible concepts through everyday experiences using crafts, activities, games and song.

 
Kindergarten – 5th Grade     

This group meets for a brief ten-minute opening in the sanctuary, which introduces the lesson.  The children focus on the bible point for that morning through skits and other forms of teaching.  After the opening they move into their classrooms for an additional and meaningful look into the message.  

 
Middle School (Grades 6-8)

This group comes together at the beginning of class for an opening activity that relates to the teachings for that morning.  The students then divide by gender into their own classrooms to reinforce the lesson through activities that are relevant to daily situations in their life.

 
High School (Grade 9-12)

This group meets in the youth lounge in our building to share and discuss the Bible lesson for the day.Through reflective and open communication, youth develop a stronger bond with each other and God.

 
Adults

The One Year Bible Study
The adults gather for an in-depth bible study course using the One Year Bible.  The bible they use is arranged in 365 daily readings.  The daily readings include passages from the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms and Proverbs.  The class meets to discuss the passages from the previous week and to gain a better understanding of its meaning.

Book of Faith Bible Study
This is your invitation to engage in the vision that the whole church become more fluent in the first language of faith, the language of Scripture, in order that we might live into our calling as a people renewed, enlivened, empowered, and sent by the word.

Exploring the Love Dare
The Love Dare book challenges the reader to think and take small steps toward building a stronger marriage. Interactive class discussions on relationships. Based on the movie Fireproof. 

 
We have over twenty, qualified, trained and enthusiastic volunteers leading and teaching the children and youth in this program.  We are a "Safe Sanctuary" church, which means that we have implemented policies and procedures to keep our children and youth as safe as possible.
