Sunday School

We started our new Sunday School format at the beginning of January. Our Sunday School time starts with a brief children’s service with the children sitting in pews. We have a makeshift altar (piano bench) with candles, flowers, and a cross. We have been focusing on teaching the children The Lord’s Prayer and discussing the meaning of the prayer each week. The children remain together for the reading of the gospel story from a children’s Bible. We then split into our two age-based groups for our curriculum based lessons. Led by Bob Ransom, the K-2 group has been enjoying creative crafts that bring the weekly lesson to life. The 3rd-5th graders have been exploring the Bible with Terri Akbas and participating in lively discussions about the Gospel lesson.
 
Parent volunteers are always welcome to help out. Please look for a sign-up sheet when you come to coffee hour or e-mail Terri, Bob, or Emily.
