The purpose of our Sunday
School (SS) program is to nurture the process of
Christian growth and development of those children
and adults entrusted to our care.
It is also our objective to
maintain an outreach and evangelism ministry into
the surrounding communities, by sharing the Good
News of salvation through Jesus Christ with all
people.
In addition to our
providing sound basic Christian education, SS is
also a very good evangelism tool in witnessing to
our family, friends and neighbors. Our Lord,
in one of his commands, tell us to "Go Teach".
Therefore, we encourage our students to spread the
Good News of Salvation and bring their
unchurched friends to SS and church to learn about
God.
Organization
The Sunday School (SS)
program is operated under the direct authority of
Trinity Memorial's Board of Education.
Our staff, which includes
teachers, substitutes, parent helpers, Secretary and
Superintendent, among others, number approximately
25 very dedicated volunteers. Staff meetings
are conducted monthly.
Parent helpers are always
needed when the SS plans activities outside of the
regular SS time. If you would be willing to
help in this capacity, please see your child's
teacher or the Superintendent.
Schedule
Sunday School is conducted
every Sunday starting in September (Rally Day)
through the last Sunday in May. The scheduled
time for Sunday School is from 10:20 - 11:30 a.m.
Visitors and Enrollment
We encourage and joyfully
welcome all guests and visitors that our SS or
congregation members bring.
Parents are also encouraged
to sit in on their child's class at any time.
Each year we set aside a parent visitation day for
this purpose.
Children and adults may
enroll in our SS program at any time during the year
by attending the class which corresponds to their
school grade. Students are automatically
enrolled by our SS Secretary after attending three
times.
Special Events and Socials
At various times throughout
the school year activities are held to commemorate
holidays, functions and annual events that are
sponsored by SS. Included in our activities
are social events that involve the family and entire
congregation and we strongly advocate complete
family participation as it can only enhance and
cultivate healthy family growth.
All student birthdays are
acknowledged during our opening on the last Sunday
of the month for all birthdays that month.
Each student is recognized, allowed to pick a small
gift from our supply; and then all students
sing happy birthday to all our birthday recipients.
This, we feel, shows the love and care that we have
for each and every one.
The baptism date of each SS
student will be celebrated in a special opening the
last Sunday of each month. We encourage all
students to know their baptism date. A small
gift is given to each student and a special
baptismal song is sung to celebrate the day each
child was brought into God's family through holy
baptism.
Adult Bible
Class
Adult Bible Class is held each Sunday at 10:20 a.m.
in the Church Conference room. All adults 18+
are invited to join!
