Great things are happening! New curriculum, new teachers, and some new programs. Two adults will head up the leadership team, with our faithful and capable teen assistants. There is always opportunities to be involved, either within the regular teacher rotation or as an occasional guest to the program. Another option is to read the story or help with a special project sometime. Please contact Jen Enriquez if you would like to help out.
If your child or your family has not checked out our Sunday school, please do so. Sunday school is a great way for kids to learn and develop friendships at church, and we seek to include families for whom Sunday morning formation is not possible. The most meaningful Christian formation takes place at home, and we seek to help families along that path as well.
Children’s Formation We are excited to begin the Cross Year in the Episcopal Children’s Curriculum, with special projects and service days included in the calendar.
Episcopal Children's Curriculum (ECC) is a thematic Sunday school curriculum developed by the Center for the Ministry of Teaching at Virginia Theological Seminary. We will use ECC for three age groups, Preschool, Primary (grades K-2), and Intermediate (grades 3-5). For each age group, there are three years of material:
Shell Year (in which Baptism is studied) Chalice Year (in which the Eucharist is studied) Cross Year (in which Worship is studied)
These four units are included in every year of the curriculum: Old Testament, New Testament, Sacraments, and the Church. Every year also has material on the major events of the Church Year, including All Saints and Pentecost.
