Christian Education Ministries

Volunteers agree to teach specific classes for terms which generally coincide with the school year and summer months.  Materials provided do not require a teaching background, just a willingness to properly prepare for each class.

For those unable to commit to a whole term, there is the opportunity to volunteer to help during the absence of a regular teacher.  Age groups can be specified.

Vacation Bible School (VBS) is a program offered during the summer months, usually for a week.  It provides an additional opportunity for enriching our members grasp of their faith.  VBS in our congregation has been a program which involves all age groups.

Putting on a successful VBS program requires much help.  From an evening meal to snacks and recreation time for the children, there are many functions to be accomplished.  If you are interested in working with our VBS program but are not interested in being a teacher, sign up here.

This entails assisting the pastor with the teaching of confirmation.  The utilization of lay adults in confirmation ministry is a powerful witness to young people who will be making their own commitments to their faith through service in the Church.

Additional Bible study opportunities are possible if adult lay leadership is available.  Primary responsibility is to motivate discussion.  Materials are available to help anyone interested in serving in this capacity.

Recognizing the many talents and skills held by our members, you may have certain areas of expertise that could enhance our learning ministry.  Opportunities include SCS Coordinator, VBS Coordinator, Children's Program Coordinator (for Wednesday evening programs), Advent and Lenten meditations booklet coordinators.

This team oversees all activities associated with learning.  Its focus includes Sunday School and mid-week events, Biblical and social issues and concerns.  It evaluates current programs and curriculum, and makes suggestions for new programs of interest.  It is responsible for all types of learning which includes Bible study, confirmation instruction and various individual and family enrichment.
