Church School is a mixed-age class. The group explores stories of Hebrew and Christian Scripture through activities and discussion. This session follows the Youth Sermon, roughly ten minutes into our Sunday service. Our Director of Youth and Children’s Ministry, Rachel Crilley, and volunteer teachers then lead the children to a separate session in the Church House that runs concurrently with the main service.
