Christian Formation

As in the past Sunday school for the children will meet during the 10 AM service; they will join their parents during the Holy Communion.  The church school year runs from September through June, with Recognition Sunday - our day to celebrate and honor the children in our parish, being held on the last day in late May.

Adult formation is also held during the week during the day and evening. Please contact the church with any inquiries that you may have about our Christian Formation programs.

Youth Formation

Seeds of Love is a Sunday School program for 3-7 year olds and children who need extra help focusing.  The structure is simple: a gathering time followed by a short lesson, then there is time for individual work.  The children will be learning prayers, doing crafts and singing songs.  The main focus is on the love Jesus has for all the children.  In addition the basics of Episcopal worship will be covered.

Church School for the older children will continue to utilize the Betty Lukens program which teaches Bible story through felt.  They will learn of God’s love and guidance through the stories of the Old and New Testaments not only through the telling of them with felt but also with interactive visual aids, craft projects, music, poems and prayers.  They will also learn about specific parts of the church service in preparation for worship.  The goal is to teach the children, at a level they can understand, about the Lord’s message of love.

We are fortunate this year to have the same group of teachers.  If you are interested in helping out on any level please let Rev. Peggy know. She will connect you with the people in charge.

Registration Forms for Church School can be found here. Or you may get one at the church.

This year the Sunday School program will begin on September 15.  During this time the children will be able to meet their teachers, and their fellow classmates.
