Sunday School

Sunday School
We’re thrilled to have about 275 children active in our Sunday School program. Sunday School happens during the 9:30 and 11 a.m. services from Rally Day (mid-September) to Memorial Day (end of May) for 3 year olds through Junior High. If you would like to register your children, stop by the office and fill out a registration form or bring your child to the Welcome Center on Sunday morning. Someone will be available to escort you and your child to your child's group. If you prefer, you can now print out forms for 9:30 Sunday School and 11:00 Sunday School.

Please call Jennifer Johnson, the Director of Children's and Family Ministry (952.934.3550) with your questions or comments.

Another component of our Children's ministry is the Saturday Morning Adventure series.  These adventures run in the fall from 9:30 - 11:00 a.m. (except for the 5th Grade Communion Adventure which runs from 9:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.) and are designed for the preschool and elementary Sunday School child and their parent(s) to experience together.  The Adventures include 1st Grade Advent, Birth - 5 and 2nd Grade Faith in Family, 3rd Grade Bible, 4th Grade Prayer, 5th Grade Communion and 6th Grade Mission.  Please check the Children's Ministry Planning Calendar for specific times and dates.  See our Children's Ministry Planning Calendar....

ROTATION Sunday School
We have a dynamic way of doing Sunday morning Christian Education for our elementary children (preschool Sunday School is traditional classroom Sunday School).  Rotation Sunday School has kids gathering for kid-friendly worship and then "rotating" with their class to one station for the rest of the morning where they will learn about the Bible story in an active, creative way. There are many strengths of this Sunday School model, not the least of which is the chance for kids to learn about one Bible story for 3-4 weeks in a row, experiencing the story thorugh different modalities at stations such as Holy Wood (drama), Garden of Eatin' (cooking) and Creation (Art). Please help yourself to the information posted at the drinking fountain bulletin board where we are featuring Rotation Sunday School and other Christioan ministry information.  There is a helpful brochure available there which explains the Rotation Model and invites you to consider how you can be a part of this incredibly exciting ministry with our children.
