For Children
Teach
a Little Child
Give
me a little child to point the way
Over
the strange, sweet path that leads to thee;
Give
me a little voice to teach to pray,
Give
me two shining eyes thy face to see.
The
only crown I ask, dear Lord, to wear
Is
this: that I may teach a little child.

Letter
from the Sunday School
Dear Friends,
We
are so excited and honored to be presenting the new Sunday School
format this year reflecting the talents of the LCOS’ children. Fritz
& Martin Presents Fine Arts Sundays is a curriculum that has
been contributed to by Pastor Keiser, Mrs. Janelle Gibson, Mrs.
Michelle Valentonis, and ourselves.
Based
on the church calendar and Sunday Word, our students will learn songs,
create poetry, skits which would include set design, paint, sculpt,
explore our church campus and symbols, as well as practice chapel
manners. Approximately every 5 weeks, during the last 5-10 minutes of
traditional worship the Sunday Schoolers will present what they have
been learning during the preceding modules. Each week will meet at the
picnic tables in front of Gibson Hall for a conjoint lesson and brief
snack before breaking up into interest stations such as music or art.
It
is our great hope that you all will support this through volunteering
to assist students by setting up/ cleaning up from Sunday School,
assist students with projects, teach songs, set up/ clean up from
snacks, or donate supplies. We are in need of several teachers and
volunteers that can rotate on a schedule.
Additionally,
students will receive a Fritz & Martin tote bag for carrying
lesson materials and fun peace-filled activities for church service.
There is a $10/ per family registration fee and an optional t-shirt
available to purchase with the Fritz & Martin Presents Fine
Arts Sundays logo. This is in effort to purchase supplies which will
need to be purchased throughout the year.
We
welcome your feedback and hope that you and your family will be joining
us on the exciting journey in the coming year. Sunday School will be
held following the traditional service (10:00 am to 11:00 am),
beginning September 13 through May 23rd. If you
have any questions please contact Christine at via e-mail at cgm4agd@hotmail.com.
Sincerely,
Christine
