Growing Together Sunday School
Our Mission:
We seek to provide quality Christian education resources and opportunities for children and their parents, aiming to help young people on their path to become caring, responsible adults in the community.
Our Program:
The central theme for this year’s program is; Stewards of God’s Earth. Girls and boys will have opportunities to engage in fun, creative learning projects in organic gardening, nature conservation, and resource conservation. There will be singing, drama, science, and art! Our classes will explore questions about what it means to care for this beautiful world God has given us to be our home. In the lessons we will strive to provide ways children might discover connections between what our Faith and the Scriptures teach, and what we may be called to do in response.
