Religious Education: Sunday School Begins September 19, 2010

Greetings in the Lord! This year's Sunday School Program is routed in teaching our children God's Word and helping them become disciples of Christ. We invite and welcome all children from Preschool through High School to join us every Sunday immediately following Holy Communion.

The class duration of all levels is 45 minutes. The program is designed for each grade level to focus on different books of the Holy Bible, so that once our children graduate High School, they will have read and been instructed in both the Old and New Testaments.
