Sunday
Morning Education
Christian Education on Sundays is from 10:00 a.m. - 10:50 a.m.
Begining in September, children age 2 thru 2nd grade will experience Godly Play. This curriculum offers a creative, child-honoring way of entering into and experiencing the biblical story. In Godly Play, we will play with the language of God and God's People: our sacred stories, parables, liturgical actions and silence. Through this powerful language, through our wandering, through the community of players gathered together, we hear the deepest invitation of all: an invitation to come play with God. Children will experience this in 3 different classrooms, 2 and 3 year olds will be together in The Shepherd's Nook, 4k and 5k, and 1st and 2nd grades will be together. Children in 3rd and 4th grades will begin a new curriculm which will help them to grow spiritually developing their relationship with God, learn how to turn their faith into aaction, and more. The curriculum for 3rd and 4th grade is named Akaloo.
Depending on the church calendar, the children become involved
in high feast days by celebrating with a party or possibly
making things that can be distributed to others within our
parish and community. Vacation Bible School is always an adventure
for the children. Our entire church community comes together
to help with this week-long production so the children are
able to meet new faces, as well as have a great time learning
about Jesus.
It is our goal to teach the children to trust and deepen their
relationship with Christ through hands-on learning. We strive
to create a comfortable atmosphere for all ages and invite
you to join us.
