Sunday School
Each Sunday we offer children and adult Sunday School classes. Classes available for children start with our Two-Year-Old class through Senior High School.
We use Christ-centered curriculum for every age in the “Growing in Christ” series provided by Concordia Publishing Company. This curriculum is a comprehensive presentation of the Bible in three years creating a biblical foundation for lifelong learning. The lessons use active learning methods that stimulate multiple senses to engage the children for an exciting and fun experience every week. Teachers connect with their students relationally and help them apply God’s truth to their lives. Children’s classes begin at 9:45 to 10:50 a.m.
Adult classes are offered every Sunday morning at 10 a.m., led by our Pastor or adult teaching volunteer. The topics vary, including Christian living issues, books of the Old and New Testament and the life of Luther. Please bring your Bible and join the discussions.
Sunday School offers family events throughout the year that provide a safe, healthy, environment for children and adults. The events range from small family events to large community events.
