Memory Verse: As the shepherds returned to their sheep, they were praising God and saying wonderful things about him. Everything they had seen and heard was just as the angel had said. (CEV)

6th Grade Spirit begins in January each year for 6th graders. Though our Sunday School program for grades 1 through 6 is exceptional...as 6th graders finish elementary school they are ready for a transistion at church too.

6th Grade Spirit is a great way to help kids learn how to live their faith and understand what it means to be a Christian. It is a stepping stone to get ready for the 3 year confirmation program that is a head of them.

 6th grade spirit is:
Hanging out and talking with friends and caring adults
Drinking soda and eating snacks first thing in the morning!
Playing Basketball, Wii, PS2, Ping Pong & other fun on campus
Learning practical ways to apply your faith to your life
Going of field trips (bowling, mini-golf, ice skating)
An all day Lock-in complete with homecooked food, team building while having fun!
6th Grade Milestone and pre-orientation for Confirmation

Mission Statement for Disciples' Workshop Sunday School

Mission of Children's Sunday School at All Saints:
Our mission is to give children the faith stories of the Bible to learn, remember and compare to their own life as they grow. To know the God of today is the same God of Abraham, David, Danial, Ruth, Mary and others of the Bible. To equip children with the Living Word; to know Jesus' love for them and know that Jesus died and rose again so one day they to will live in heaven with our Heavenly Father. To build caring relationships with adults, youth and peers; and to know that they as Christians should share the stories they have learned with others and to invite others to learn the Good News of Jesus Christ.
