Sunday School is for children from age 3 through High School. Confirmation is for grades 6 thru 8. Our education hour is held after Sunday service from 10:30AM until 11:30AM.
Sunday School begins on Rally Sunday, September 11, 2022, with opening at 10:30AM in the sanctuary. Children will then split into their age-appropriate classrooms until 11:30AM. During that time parents are encouraged to join the ABC (Adult Bible Class) for an in-depth study of our faith, to make it a true education hour for all. Nursery care available.
Our Christ-centered curriculum, Growing in Christ, covers the Bible in three years, creating a biblical foundation for lifelong learning. Growing in Christ follows a same-age classroom model, so students are divided into three classes: Pre-K/Kindergarten, Grades 1 - 3, and Grade 4 & 5. As they grow in faith alongside their peers, the children explore the Bible, draw connections to the Small Catechism, and learn the traditions of the Lutheran Church.
Our classes are team-taught by adult (and some great, post-Confirmation teens) volunteers who are passionate about teaching our children the Gospel of Jesus Christ!
The Sunday School year runs from September through June. Weekly classrooms open from 10:15AM -10:30AM, and run until 11:30AM, with a calendar noting special classes or events.
