Children's Ministry
Jesus said, "...whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me." Matthew 18:5
This year we are once again excited to kick off the year with our Faith Travelers Rotational Sunday School Program beginning September 11th. The children will "travel" each Sunday to a new classroom location including The Shepherd's Tent, Mary & Martha's Kitchen, Holy Word Studios, and the Market Place.
Your child will not want to miss learning about Joseph and his coat of many colors. The children will be making their own coat of many colors by tie dying their own Faith Traveler t-shirt! We will begin Sunday mornings at 9:15 am with an opening time for children aged preschool - 5th grade. Opening time will take place downstairs in the fellowship hall. The children will then go to their rotational Sunday school classroom from 9:30 to 10:15am, and finish with closing time in the downstairs fellowship hall from 10:15 -10:30 am. You can plan to always pick up your child in the downstairs fellowship hall at 10:30 am. Preschoolers should be picked up separately in the preschool classroom, located downstairs next to the nursery.
We will continue with our Bible Bucks Reward Store this year. The children will be earning points on their Bible Buck that they can cash in for prizes. This point system will be kept track of during Sunday school time. The reward store will be located in the downstairs Sunday school supply room, and will be open from 10:30 - 11:00am the third Sunday of the month in December, February and April. Listed below are some of the ways your child can earn points this school year. Please encourage them to participate in any, or all of these:
- Come to Opening at 9:15 am
- Bring a Bible to Sunday school/opening
- Recite the Bible verse of the week/month
- Recite the Lord's Prayer
- Recite the Ten Commandments
- Recite the books of the Bible
- Recite the 23rd Psalm
- Recite the 12 Disciples
- Bible drills during opening
- Bring a friend to Sunday school (2 points)
- Check out and return a book from the church library
The Sunday school classes will also be collecting an offering each Sunday morning during Sunday school to go toward a mission project. This year's mission will be decided by the kids themselves! Stay tuned for more info.
