This year’s theme for Sunday School:
This year's theme is: "I Love to Tell the Story".  There are so many stories about Jesus and his love for us.  Come to listen to the stories and then share them with people you know.  "I love to tell the story, 'twill be my theme in glory, to tell the old, old story of Jesus and his love."

CURRICULUM :

We will, again, be using the "SPARK" curriculum for Sunday School, for ages 3 through 3rd grades.  This was very successful and very popular last year.  Each lesson focuses on the scripture lessons that are read during worship, linking our time in Sunday school with our time in worship.  There are also take-home sheets that can help us think about, talk about, and experience the lessons during our whole week.  God is with us every minute of every day.  Can we spend a few minutes with him?
