FAMILY SUNDAY SCHOOL

March 24, 2019 at 9:00am

Fellowship Hall

Parents and guardians of children ages 3 through 5th grade, please plan to join your children for this fun-filled hour as we share what they are learning in Sunday School this spring, as well as simple practices for reinforcing lessons at home.

ALL families and households are welcome to join us for this time of singing, prayer, storytelling and learning—whether you have a Sunday Schooler or not!

(Note:  All ages are welcome!  However, two-year-old Sunday school, 6th Grade Spirit, Confirmation and High School Sunday School will take place as usual. Nursery care will also be available for kids 5 and under.)

Questions?  Please contact Joe Schwartz or Pastor Kristin.

“Why are we attending a Lutheran church?” “Have we always been Lutheran?”

“Will we always be Lutheran?”

These are some questions as you may hear as a parent of a child going through faith education here at All Saints. During their 6^th grade year, our students begin to piece together some of the answers to these and more questions.

This milestone helps them to take a look at, with the help of their parents and other loved ones, their faith family tree. They will create a tree showing how they came to be part of All Saints Lutheran Church. It will also help them as they begin to examine their own faith lives during the 3 years of Confirmation.  Confirmation is something that helps you understand how you connect with God and with the church.

This milestone is meant to begin a conversation about faith and what it means to each of us and our family. It is literally a time to remember your own baptism and “confirm” the faith that our parents and our church handed down to us.

If you would like more information regarding this milestone, please contact Pastor Kristin, Joe Schwartz or Kevin Harpel.

What is 6th Grade Spirit?

This is a crucial period in the life of a 6^th Grader. At this time of the year, they have discovered that they are the leaders at their school and are beginning to gain more independence. Soon they’ll be experiencing life in middle school and more opportunities to make choices on their own. Here at All Saints, we offer “6th Grade Spirit”, which is designed to assist the family in helping these young people in making the best faith-based decisions possible when faced with new challenges. This experience is designed for our ‘tweens to discover him or herself, while continuing to grow in their relationship with Jesus, through the guidance of caring adults.

Kevin Harpel leads the class, which meets at 9:00am Sunday in the YO Zone.
Families are encouraged to join the class at any time.

 "One on One" Sunday School

Some children learn best in a smaller consistant class environment...some would benefit seeing the same teacher and shepherds every week! Some children are "born leaders" and would love to share their know-how with other children.

All Saints has a dedicated classroom for children who might learn better in a more typical style of learning enviroment, yet interactive and hands-on...too good to be true?  If you would like to learn more about what this class has to offer your child please contact Joe Schwartz. Your child is special, we know that and we hope this class helps them feel that way!

 "One on One" is:
During the regular SS hour (9am-10am)
In YO Room 2 (located behind the basketball net)
Follows the same stories as our rotation SS only class curriculm in adapted for the needs of the students
Children enjoy playing, learning and growing in their faith
Children have the same teachers and shepherds all year long so no need to adapt to different teaching styles every week.
