We welcome your children into Worship and Sunday School at Spirit of Peace and we welcome you as partners in our ministry with children. In one hour a week, our Sunday School teachers and shepherds will plant some faith seeds, but we recognize that what we do in Sunday School supports the important faith teaching and nurturing that children receive in their homes. In that spirit, we invite parents to become an active part of the Children's Education program so that together we can work towards our goal of helping our children develop a relationship with God that will manifest itself through their daily living as loving, forgiving, confident peacemakers in the world.

Rotation Curriculum
We currently use a Rotation Model for the presentation of Sunday School lessons. It is an exciting, creative, kid-friendly, practical, flexible, multiple learning styles-informed new approach to organizing and teaching Sunday School. In the rotation model, several teachers present the same story or theme over several weeks, each using a different participatory teaching method. From week to week, small groups of students rotate from teacher to teacher, to experience many different versions of that lesson theme presented through art, creative cookery, games, movement and music, storytelling, science and videos.  Our kids love it and our teachers love it!!

Sunday Morning Schedule
Our Kick-off Sunday for our children's education program is the second Sunday in September. Sunday School for 4 year olds through eighth grade meets most Sunday mornings during the school year, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Classes are dismissed for a snack at 9:50 a.m. and into their parents' care at 10:00 a.m. Worship begins at 10:30 a.m.

Nursery
Nursery care is provided for infants through kindergarteners during worship. 

Bibles
Bibles (New Revised Standard Version) are presented to third graders in the fall of the year. 

Worship
"Let the children come to me." Like Jesus, we love our children. Worship is a time when the whole community gathers to celebrate and the children are a very important part of that community. The pastors regularly provide a children's message and the children are often invited to participate in worship.
