SUNDAY SCHOOL NEWS

Sunday School classes begin Sunday, Sept. 12th.

We are looking forward to a new, rewarding year of growing, learning, and sharing together!
We start this new school year out with Rally Day on August 29th!
Next months article will have more on that.

We have a couple new teachers this year that we are very excited about!
We warmly welcome Mrs. Jillian Harp and Mr. Dale Rankin! Yay!

Teachers this year are:
Deb Martin ~ Preschool & Kindg.
Karen Mathesius ~ 1st – 3rd
Jillian Harp & Dale Rankin ~ 4th & 5th
Rita Novak & Bill Eckles ~ Jr. High (6th – 8th)
Our Substitutes this year are:
Tina Saylor, Dawn Rogers, and Kelly Keller

Our Sunday School class time will run from 10:15 – 11:00.
We will have music (hopefully!!) from 10:15-10:25,then the kids will go to their respective
classrooms and will attend class from 10:30-11:00. Please remind your child they need to be
upstairs by 10:15.

We know how fun it is to “hang out” and eat in the fellowship room; But, it is important to be on
time for class too.

We will continue with our 2nd Sunday of the Month Group Class this year. Jesus asks us to spend
our days learning & serving, giving & praying, worshipping with others, and inviting & encouraging
friends along the way!

Please encourage your kids to bring a friend to Sunday School this year.
Thank you to all who help support Our Church’s Sunday School program throughout the year! No
matter how big or small ~ you are each very important and very appreciated!

Children's Christian Education
Children are an integral part of our church family.  They are the future of our church
and we are blessed with a vibrant group of kids.  The spirit and vitality that the youth
bring to our church is truly a gift for us all.

Our Sunday School leaders consist of committed Christians who love Jesus Christ and
love children and are dedicated to passing His love on through Bible instruction,
relationship building, and nurturing.

Our growing Sunday School program is augmented with an exciting offering of special
programs, events, and traditions.
And these words which I command you
today shall be in your heart.  You shall
teach them diligently to your children…

Our Sunday School is a Year Round Program!
Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend
like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant
rain on tender plants.

Deuteronomy 32:2
Each child is invited to come learn and
share God’s love in a way that is fun and
challenging.  Feeling this love, they can
go forth knowing that they are a precious
child of God to share their faith for a  
lifetime!
