Sunday school meets throughout the program year using developmentally appropriate curriculum for preschool through high school. We believe that each child and youth comes to us with different experiences and at different and unique places in their spiritual journeys, yet with something to share and help us learn from. Our aim is to help children and youth become familiar with the Bible and its impact on their lives in today's world. Each of our classes use Seasons of the Spirit curriculum (www.spiritseasons.com), a lectionary-based curriculum which allows students to explore the meaning and mystery in the Bible.

9:00 a.m. Sunday classes are available for all ages during the school year 

During the school year, Sunday morning and yearly activities include: scripture reading, exploration through the arts, discussion, reflection, prayer, and service projects within our church community, worship service and the community at large. It is our goal as a church community to assist families in and with the spiritual development of their children and youth in an open, safe, caring and respectful manner.

During the worship service at 10:00 a.m.:

Children from infants through kindergarten are cared for on the lower level.

We offer two different areas: Nursery Care in Room A (ages birth-2, Supervisor Maria Bybee) and Preschool Care in the Sunroom, (ages 3-5, Supervisor Autumn Henry-Darwish, see below). Volunteers from our church families help supervise the children. Some activities that take place during this time include imaginative play, playtime on gym equipment (older children), story time, and crafts.

Older children (1st grade and up) join their family as part of the worshipping community.

Activity clipboards and crayon bags are available in the narthex each week and twice a month a children’s moment is included in worship. We believe that children enhance worship and benefit from it. From participation in the worship service and partaking of the sacraments, we think children learn tradition, values and a sense of how to worship.
