Planning for Sunday School Opening

On Thursday night we met and made plans for the upcoming Sunday School year. I thought I would fill you in this morning. Superintendent Sandy Stone will welcome everyone back on Sunday, September 7 at 9:15 a.m. with Juice, Coffee and Donut munchkins. We will register for classes, take our annual picture and meet our teachers.

All children are welcome to participate. You do not need to be a member of the church or Sunday School to come. There is no cost but we do take a weekly offering. The kids meet together in an inter-generational opening and then split up into age based classes. We offer classes for infants and toddlers, for parents who want to attend Sunday School, all the way up through High School.

We also offer an Adult Bible Study that meets each week. They will be studying the book of Acts this fall.

The Sunday School Year runs through mid May. We encourage everyone to attend regularly but we know schedules vary from week to week and season to season. The way our curriculum works you can miss several weeks and not feel behind when you return. But we all know it is harder to get back in the habit when you skip a week or two or three. Those children and adults with near perfect attendance will get an award at the end of the year.

In December the children put on a Christmas Program. In May we let the children take over our worship service and do skits, recitations and songs.

We have had some great teachers and most of them are coming back. They include Rosie Main, Sandra Lucien, Fran Rogers, Rachelle Weimer, Zelda Earle, Doris Calkins, Laura Kreger, Kristen Deptulski, Cal Lord and Curt Brockway. This year we have one newcomer so far. Janet Laflamme will be helping with the K- 2 class since Fran Rogers will be taking a sabbatical.

So think about bring your kids to Sunday School this year. It is going to be fun. Don't have kids? That's alright. Come to the adult class. They have a blast.
