Children’s Sunday School Classes
Because our children’s first Christian steps are so important, we have carefully designed our Sunday School program to nurture and teach all the children at St. James United Methodist Church.
Each week age appropriate Bible lessons are taught, using music and songs, books and stories, arts and crafts. We are blessed with loving and dedicated teachers, several of whom have taught for over 20 years! Our teachers strive to know each child and their family, thus strengthening the bond between church and home.
Older children joyfully participate with their classes and families in many St. James mission projects. As members of the God Squad, our 5th and 6th graders enjoy monthly social and service outings.
We start our children off by teaching them “Jesus Loves Me’ and send them into the teenage years secure in the knowledge that Jesus and their church loves them.
