The Summer Sunday School program is a perfect place to share your gifts and passions. You can commit to as many or as few Sundays as you are interested in or have the time for. We have ten Sundays from June 5th through August 7th that need to be filled by adults who love children and God. 20 positions are available (two adults for our class at 10:00 a.m. ages 3-12 classes) to fill our Summer Sunday School teaching calendar. We will supply the curriculum and the support.
Please consider sharing just ONE SUNDAY, and that’s just ONE HOUR. You can sign up online here or contact Terry Wright so you can share your time, gifts and passions. When you were baptized, your parents and everyone in the congregation promised to love and nurture you, teaching you about Jesus so that you would grow up knowing God's love. Baptism is a way for parents to say, "I believe in the promises God has made in the Bible to love and care for my child, and I want my child to walk in that love." Baptism is also a way of saying, "Yes!" to God's invitation to enter the community of faith.
Our Godly Play baptism story allows us to weave in the trinity (the Father, Son and Holy Spirit), the light through candles and the blessing using water. It also grants us the opportunity to present the importance of each of each person and the name that they received. This is a great opportunity for children to recount their baptism and to revisit Jesus' baptism. As our story tellers retell the story, they will recreate the light of God and then, when the lesson ends, the children can take that light of God into the world to share it with their family, friends and neighbors. For this week’s Sunday School lesson, we invite parents to bring their children to Sunday School at our 10AM service time and let them revisit the gift of being part of a rich history and a welcoming Christian community. Beginning 9/12/2021, Sunday School will be presented in person to children ages 3-18 during our 10:00am worship service time every Sunday.
