Sundays for
Kids at FUMC
Sunday School is every Sunday from 9-10 am for
children age 2 through 6th grade. Throughout the year
children participate in the Worship services in a
variety of ways. Some of our 5th - 8th graders serve as
acolytes. Other children sing in His Kids Choir. Occasionally our children are
the worship leaders for an entire service.
Early Childhood Sunday School
We have a class for 2-3 year olds and a class for Pre-K 4-5
year olds. Little ones have a lot of energy and they learn
through play. Both of our Early Childhood classes are
developmentally appropriate with lessons and activities that
allow your child to learn about Jesus Christ.
Sunday School for Kindergarten –
6th Grade
Our Elementary age children begin the morning together in
the Wesley Center for music, a general object lesson,
offering and prayer before going off to the classroom with
their teachers and classmates for more specific, age
appropriate learning.
Kindergarteners,
First and Second Graders learn about people of the Bible
through lessons, crafts, games, and interactive play.
Third Grade is
the year children receive their first Bible. The year is
spent learning how to use the new Bible and includes a
special Lenten study in which parents or guardians join their children in
comparing the Gospel accounts of the Easter Story.
Fourth Graders
continue learning about their Bibles and study the Apostles
Creed, the Lords’ Prayer and the two sacraments of the
United Methodist Church - Baptism and Communion.
Fifth Grade is
all about Survey and Service. Children dig deeper into the
Bible and complete service projects related to our church
and our community.
Sixth Grade
focuses on missions. The children learn about missionaries,
short term mission opportunities and how to share their
gifts and talents by working on projects with an
international focus. Their Bible lessons center around the
Apostle Paul and the early church.
Sunday School is Year-Round
We offer Sunday School throughout the year, the exception
being the Sundays of Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor
Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas weekends – these are Family
Worship Sundays and children join their parents in the
Sanctuary (childcare is available for children age 5 and
younger). Our Summer Sunday School moves at a more relaxed
pace and is often linked to our
Vacation Bible School
theme.
What forms are needed for my child
to attend Sunday School?
We ask that all children attending Sunday School have one of
the two forms below filled out when they first attend our
program. Please download, print and fill out the appropriate
form:
Can I bring my child to Worship?
Children are always welcome in worship. Children’s
bulletins, activity bags and books are available in the
entryway to the Sanctuary. Nursery care is available during both our
9:00 am and 10:30 am services.
