Sunday school will be offered every week for students in Pre-K through 4th grade! It will begin at 10am between the 9am and 11am services. Sign ups are not necessary for Sunday School; we would love to see your kids any weeks that you’re around! 


First Communion Classes will also be offered on Sunday mornings at 10am, and will be available for students in grades 1st-6th.This class will consist of four Sunday morning sessions, and there will be two classes you can choose from: either September 15th-October 4th, or October 20th-November 10th. Since there is only four sessions, be sure to sign up to one that you can commit to being at each consecutive week if possible!
