Summer Sunday School is OPEN!
Sunday, July 25 at 10am
Parents Please Note: Summer is a great time to transition your child into their new class (ie: nursery to preschool, or from preschool to the “big” room in Taylor “upper” Hall.) Class sizes are smaller in the summer and we are happy to help any way we can. You are always welcome to stay with your child as they make the transition.
Preschool – continues their High Seas Expedition adventure as they are caught in a storm at sea with Paul. We’ll be learning that God’s Word is comforting and God holds onto me, loves me, and is always with me.
Kindergarten to Grade 5 - will be looking at that tiny mustard seed and how it grows into a mighty plant. Our faith can start out like that too, very small, but with Jesus’ help and God’s Word, our faith can grow and grow.
The Kindergarten to Grade 5 children will join their parents in church at Announcement time, so they may take part in Family Communion.
