Children’s Church
"Let the children come to me"
The children before heading to Church Camp 2022.
God is blessing Sunday School each week as our twenty-five children gather for worship and study the Bible. With the Holy Spirit’s help, we are all learning more about who God is and the promises we have through Jesus.
We start each Sunday with a time of worship. Our worship includes three songs, a time of confession, saying the Lord’s Prayer and also a time to learn about what is happening in the church calendar. We have special services during Lent and Advent to teach the children about the Christian seasons and their importance.
Our current curriculum is published by LifeWay called “The Gospel Project”. This summer we are ending the New Testament and as of August 2022 moving back into the old Testament.
Anglican Church Camp of the Midwest 2022 - “We Believe”
In the summer months we offer a Vacation Bible School that takes place over a period of six to seven weeks in place of Sunday School. Church Camp runs the last week in June each year.
Those finishing second grade and interested in receiving first communion will attend six classes prior to being admitted to first communion. The classes focus on our liturgy and in particular the Nicene Creed and The Lord’s Prayer, the vestments, church calendar and the Sacrament of Holy Communion. Teen ALPHA and the new ACNA Catechism form the curriculum for those who are being prepared for the sacrament of Confirmation.
young kids through first grade
Our younger students attend our group worship time and then head to class to work through the Big Picture bible and finish up the lesson with play doh. There is a nursery available for any mom’s with young children that are not ready for Sunday School.
second and third grade
Our younger school agents begin their Sunday also attending group worship and then in their class, lead by Ms. Tracy or Ms. Kler Soe they spend time reading the Bible story of the day, discussing what they have learned and then coloring or crafting.
fourth through seventh grade
Our oldest group are those children who are able to read and range from 8 years old through elementary school. Ms. Anna and Ms. Julia alternate teaching this group and also lead our worship. On the first Sunday of each month this group is in church and actively participating in the service by serving at the altar, reading and greeting.
