Sunday Programs
Children’s Church
Leading children in Episcopal worship
K-5th grade: 8:50 am & 10:50 am Sunday, Children’s
Chapel
During their worship time, children light the
candles, pray, sing, have a Gospel lesson and a sermon. Young worshipers have
an opportunity to share their fears, joys and daily life events with their leader
and offer prayers. At the end of the service, children enjoy worship
bulletins where they can apply and reinforce
the Gospel lesson of the day.
Sunday School
The new year will start on August 23, 2009 with
an Open House.
K-5th grade: 10:00-10:45 am, Learning Centers
Children gather for in-depth Bible studies, using a
weekly rotation schedule. Our curriculum nourishes young
hearts with God’s Word, helping children to grow in faith and love. Every month we focus on one Biblical character or story. Our Sunday School centers - Solomon’s
Cinema, Noah’s Art Room, Martha’s
Kitchen and the Garden of Eden, create an inspiring
atmosphere for our young learners.

| We aim for all classes to be equally enjoyable for children and their
teachers. It may take some time for a student to adjust to a new atmosphere.
However, if a child has difficulty concentrating and is repeatedly
disruptive to others, a parent will be asked to stay with him/her in the
class for some time. We encourage the parents to remind their children of
respect when participating in the programs. |
