Brenda Szymanowski, ably assisted by Natalie Graham, will be teaching a new Sunday School Class for our Youth (middle through high school grades). The class will be held in the Youth Building (next to Fr. Dow's office) each Sunday morning, beginning September 8 at 9:00 AM. We are so very excited to take this step, which in time, will open the door for more and better Youth opportunities, Diocesan Programs, trips for both education and fun, etc. |

The lesson plans for Children’s Christian Education come from Lesson Plans That Work which is published by the Episcopal Church.
The plans follow the Revised Common Lectionary. Children hear the story of the Gospel reading for the day and participate in various activities such as coloring sheets, hands-on crafts, and often act out the story to help them understand the lesson. We have a fun time in CCE learning about God’s love for us and sometimes sharing what we have learned with the adult CE class! |
