CHILDREN’S PROGRAMMING

HELLO FRIENDS, PARENTS AND FELLOW SUNDAY SCHOOL ENTHUSIASTS 

I hope that you all enjoyed what turned out to be a wet but still great summer! It went fast though… and fall is quickly approaching, so here is an update on the fall Sunday School program that resumes next month.

We are thrilled to once again be working with the curriculum from Sparkhouse. This is our fourth year using this curriculum. We are very happy with it as it helps provide a rich Sunday School experience for a variety of learning styles. This year we will be looking at stories from both the Old and New Testaments. Very exciting!

Our “many hands make light work” rotation, has been very successful with both our parent volunteers, and Sunday School teachers so we will be continuing with the monthly rotation for all involved.

We are also very excited to announce that Letitia, who is starting ministry training at The Centre for Christian Studies, will be doing her first field placement with SVUC. One area of her responsibilities will be to look after the week-to-week running of Sunday School.

We are also happy to announce that we are continuing our monthly Children’s Choir program. Please see the music portion of this newsletter for more information. It’s going to be a great year!

HERE ARE SOME DATES TO MARK ON YOUR CALENDAR:

  • September 8: Sunday School Registration Begins
  • September 15: Backpack Blessing Sunday and Sunday School Kickoff
  • September 29: Children’s Choir

If you would like to be a part of the action in assisting with Sunday School, we still have a couple of volunteer spots open. I hope that you will consider being a part of Sunday School this upcoming year. For more information, see either Stephen or Letitia – or email stephen@symonsvalleyuc.com

Thank you for all that you do at SVUC! Enjoy the rest of your summer! See you in the fall!

Blessings, Stephen & Letitia
