Sunday School
Christ Church offers Sunday school classes for children age 4 through grade 5. Each class is aimed at helping children experience faith at their level of understanding. Classes are held most Sundays, excluding summer, during the 10 a.m. service.
Fall 2023 — Sunday school begins on September 24, 2023 and is scheduled for most Sundays through December 17 (no classes on October 8 and November 26). Classes will begin at 9:45 and end between 10:30 and 10:45. After class, teachers will lead the children back to their caregivers for the duration of the church service.
The Parish is offering two programs for this school year:
Godly Play
Godly Play is a hands-on, story-centered introduction to Bible stories for preschoolers through Grade 2. The Godly Play classroom is in the Hillstrom House (119 South Washington Street) next door to the church.
Spark Kidz
Spark Lectionary is a curriculum that helps children in grades 3-5 to explore one of the same Bible stories heard in worship. Spark classes will be held in the cafeteria (side entrance on the main church building).
