GOOD SHEPHERD SUNDAY SCHOOL

Welcome to a new program year at Good Shepherd Church School!

We adopted Spark lectionary based curriculum for the 2011-2012 Sunday school year. Spark Lectionary follows stories in the Revised Common Lectionary. Throughout the three-year cycle, each lesson comes from a Bible story in the Old Testament, the Gospels, or Acts. This model is designed for classroom use and works best for congregations who are looking for a curriculum that connects readings from worship with Church school. Spark is a faith formation program that gets children ages 2 through grade 6 excited about God’s Word. Spark lessons bring to life 150 stories from the Old and New Testament through games, art, music, and science, to accommodate all the different ways kids learn.

Sunday school is every Sunday at the 10 o’clock service. Children start off in the church with their families and are dismissed to Sunday school, children then return to their families in church at the exchange of the peace. Sunday school takes place on the third floor and all volunteers have had Safe Church Training.

Church of the Good Shepherd also offers nursery care on the second floor. Children can be dropped off before the service and picked up at the end of the service or if you prefer, you can get your child any time and bring them to the railing for a blessing at communion. Our nursery staff has also received Safe Church Training.

All baptized persons are welcome to receive communion at Good Shepherd. If you choose not to receive, you can come to the railing to receive a blessing. To indicate you would like to receive a blessing, please cross your arms over your chest.

If you have any questions, please contact Heidi McCabe.
