Sunday School (Cheryl Fiore)  Christian education is provided for children from Pre-K to the 6th grade from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM.  Seeing children grow in their faith is an exciting way to spend an hour on Sunday morning.  Many Sunday School staff have experienced their own growth in faith too as they are prepare for and participate in lessons; prepartion and participation frequently allow opportunities to learn information that helps in gaining a new understanding of important faith points.  The program utilizes the Fireglight curriculum, which empowers kids' creativity and imagination as they explore Scripture through exciting activities that reinforce the lessons. The Sunday School program provides easy to follow lesson books.  Ministers may serve in any of the following positions:

Sunday School Teachers:   Responsibilities include class preparation, conducting the lesson, ensuring the room is cleaned up, and finding a replacement when necessary.  The time commitment is approximately  1 hour of preparation and 1 hour of teaching each Sunday for about 30 lessons.  This is a great opportunity for two friends to team teach and support an important Ministry.

Sunday School Aides:  Aides participate in the classroom activities, but are not responsible for the actual class material.  Aides enable the teachers to focus on the assignment, while the aides assist those students who may require one-on-one attention especially at the pre-school level.  Aides could also supervise group activities such as movie day or service project day.

Sunday School Substitutes:  Substitute teaching is ideal for those who have an interest in participating in the Sunday School program, but would be unable to make a commitment each week.  This enables our teachers to find replacements for when their schedules do not allow for being there. As with team teaching we will pair you up with one grade to be that grades substitute.
