Mixed Adult Sunday School Class

ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS

The Present Word curriculum offers a study of scripture in order to discover its deeper meaning and how it is relevant to our world today led by Peter Rupert in the yellow classroom, 103 from 9:30-10:15 a.m. beginning September 8, 2024.

The lessons of this quarter are a study of worship practices offered as a grateful response to the covenantal relationship God initiates, first with Abraham, and later with the people of Israel. The patterns of worship reflect the gamut of community life, from praising God’s goodness and mercy to calling on God for help in times of crisis.

The nursery is available during Sunday School hour.

Sunday School and Children's Ministry Update

SUNDAY SCHOOL

We had been expecting to resume Sunday school this week after a Christmas break, but considering the current COVID surge that's being fueled by delta and omicron, the Christian Education Committee has decided to not yet resume children’s Sunday school offerings or nursery during the 9:30 hour and the adult classes will not yet be meeting either. 

The current COVID surge is expected to spike in the next couple of weeks, so we hope to resume full Sunday school offerings soon, but after local rates of transmission have diminished. We pray that everyone stays safe and healthy in the meantime. 

Children will still be invited forward during the service and can go for children’s chapel, which will be spaced or outdoors as weather permits, but there will be no children’s choir practice for now. There will be no Sunday school classes, but we will keep you updated. Please get in touch with Sue Henderson to get on the downstairs adult Sunday school class email list.

Children are invited into the 10:30 a.m. worship service and nursery will be available for the church service. Staff and nursery workers are all fully vaccinated, have received a booster shot and/or have tested negative this week. We are grateful for the space, resources, and the temperate climate so that we can offer safe opportunities to meet right now. All adults and children over the age of 3 need to wear a face mask while in public spaces even if fully vaccinated against COVID-19. While this variant appears to be less life-threatening than previous strains, it is affecting people of all ages at an alarming rate. 

Please worship from home if you are exhibiting any COVID-like symptoms, are aware of an exposure, or have been asked by a school or other institution to quarantine or isolate.

See you Sunday for worship, in person or online.


On behalf of the Christian Education Committee,

Aled Pritchard
Head of CE Committee

Edited to update change in adult Sunday school class offerings: Sunday School classes will resume as of February 13, 2022.
