ADVENT'S SUNDAY SCHOOL

The first day of Sunday School is September 18. Sunday classes are for ages 4 through 5th grade. The children start each week at 9:30 am worship;  they stay in service through the Children’s Sermon and are then dismissed to their classrooms. The Sunday School teachers will meet the children in the rear of the church to escort them to their classrooms.

Sunday School finishes when the church service ends, at approximately 10:30. Please pick up your children in their classrooms when worship is over. There is no Sunday School the last Sunday of each month; this will be a "Family Service." The children are encouraged to participate in the Family Service. There is a sign-up sheet on the bulletin board in the hallway by the church office. They can volunteer to read, hand out bulletins or help with the offering.

  Please note that all children in the Pre-K and third grade classes, as well as any new students, will receive Bibles at the worship service on the first day of Sunday School, September 18th.

We use Augsburg Fortress' Spark Curriculum where each lessons gets kids opening the Bible and exploring God's Word.


Confirmation Classes for Grades 6, 7, & 8

Classes are generally held twice a month with Pastor and Sunday morning classes lead by a teacher. The highlight each year is the annual trip to NYC to the Rockefeller Christmas tree, dinner at Planet Hollywood and a visit to St. Patrick's cathedral.

Students in the Confirmation program are expected to take part in various church activities  (acolyte, nursery help) and projects prior to their Affirmation of Baptism.
