How do We Tell the Story in These Tough Times? 

Christians have asked that of themselves for 2000 years!  We have told the story of God’s love in secret in homes and catacombs. We have shared by telling stories orally to people who were illiterate. God’s people have passed on the narrative through print materials, pictures, film and now we find ourselves in a new time and are asking the question again. There are some new ways that we will try, some old models that we will keep. Some old ways will fade away. Our call is to continue to tell the Story. There will be many failures, but there will be many successes. Welcome to 2022!

Godly Play  

Ages three through 5th grade will meet in a hybrid class. There will be an in-person class that will meet every Sunday in CE Room 210 at 9:45am. 

Children ages 3 through 5th Grade participate in "Godly Play". This Montessori-based program is a unique approach to religious education, inviting children to wonder about themselves, God and the world in a way that is playful and meaningful to them.  Godly Play respects the innate spirituality of children and encourages them to use their curiosity and imagination to experience the mystery and joy of God. All of our teachers and volunteers attend Safe Church Training and submit to a background check. 

Our teachers follow the PCUSA "Godly Play" and "We Believe" curriculum, which teaches children who God is, who and whose they are, and what they are called to be and do. Our "Gateways to Worship" program offers kindergarteners a year of introductory lessons to worship, sacraments and the church year.

Through the Bible Class 

This class will meet weekly at 9:45am in CE Room 219 using The Present Word curriculum.
