Trinity Lutheran Church Sunday School

"All thy children shall be taught of the Lord." Isaiah 54:13

Tips for parents of young children:

• Come to the opening with your child. Show them the routine. Pray with them and sing with them.
• Walk your child to class or let your child show you where their class is.
• Come in and stay for all or part of the class time. This will help a reluctant young child feel secure.
• Pray that your child would open their heart to the Word of God. Pray for your Sunday School teacher. Pray with your child.
• Be consistent and don't give up! The same kid who says he hates it ultimately comes to love Sunday School.

Ages three through grade 8:

The pre-school through middle age curriculum is entitled “Growing in Christ” published by Concordia Publishing House in St. Louis, Missouri.   At 9:45 in the Ed building, Sunday School begins with 15 minutes of group singing led by Rebecca Wayman and Jennifer Smith.  The music is educational, upbeat and fun.  The third Sunday of the month, immediately before late service, the children entertain and inspire the congregation with one of their hymns.  At 10:00 the children proceed to their classrooms for the day’s Bible study.  All studies are Jesus-centered and Bible-based.  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.  There are presently 6 class levels:  3 year old, pre-kindergarten and kindergarten, grades 1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8.  Most classes are small (5 to 7 students) which encourages participation as well as friendliness.  Click here for Sunday School enrollment form.  Please return them by e-mail to Becky Reeve or to the church office.

High School Bible Study:

The High School Bible study is led by our Director of Christian Education, Michelle Pitts.  The senior youth will begin the new Sunday School year studying what it means to have “courage” as a Christian.  They will be discovering ways to develop the courage to stand strong as people of God.  This study is video and discussion based and will dare our youth to develop their character to stand in their faith under all conditions.  The Sr. youth Sunday School Class is located upstairs behind the quilts.  All High School students are welcome.

Adult Bible Study:

Three separate Bible studies are offered every Sunday morning, led by Pastor Hopkins and several teaching volunteers including Ed Holscher, Bob Grefski, Sonny Massey, Ted Schmidt, Gary Watkins, Janet Yardley and Chris Garretson.  The topics vary including Christian living issues, books of the Old and New Testament and the life of Luther.
