Church School starts promptly at 9:45 am for grades Preschool through high school. We start with some time together with Father John and then move on to our class time. At this point classes are broken down into 3 groups; Preschool- Kindergarten, First-Fifth grades and Sixth grade & up. After class time we join the rest of our parish family at Mass, usually at the Peace.
Each month, the First Sunday of the month is CHILDREN'S SUNDAY!! There is no church school that day but all children & families are encouraged to attend & take part in the Mass. We sit together as a Church School in an area designated for the teachers & children. Our feeling is that this allows the children to see, experience and fully learn "what we do in church" as well as to actively participate.
The Youngest members of our church school are learning basic Bible stories & crafts, the 1st-5th graders are using Group Publishing's BIBLE MAX series which helps them larn the Bible & relate it to everyday life in a fun & energetic way! Our older class studies a variety of things geared towards confirmation preperation, including The Bible, what it means to be Episcopalian & various prayers of our faith. We welcome all children at all age levels, at anytime and look forward to sharing our love God & his Good News with your Children. Volunteers are always welcome to help for Church School, Childrens Days or behind the scenes. Please contact me if you are interested.
Look for our Calendar of upcoming events including a Dinner & a movie night & a spring children's day! To be put on our email list or to have your children receive the Kid's News Newsletter please contact Christine:
