Sunday School begins Sunday, September 14th
We are excited to invite all children in PreK through 5th grade to join us in Henderson Hall at 9:30 a.m. as we begin our new year of faith formation.

This year we’ll explore stories from the Bible that reveal how God loves, promises, and cares for us – from Abraham and Sarah to Jesus feeding the 5,000 and teaching us to love with kindness and justice. Through engaging storytelling, music, art, and hands-on activities, children will grow closer to Jesus and deepen their understanding of God’s promises.
