Christ Lutheran Church begins Sunday school program offers extra-special curriculum

| September 13, 2013 2:58 PM

When the tragedy at Sandy Hook School rocked the nation, people everywhere reacted quickly to give aid and support. One forward-thinking Christ Lutheran Church member decided to be pro-active and do something to promote the future safety, security and happiness of children right here through the work of our Christ Lutheran Sunday School.

Thanks to a generous donation from an anonymous donor, our Sunday School Coordinators have been able to carefully select an extra-special curriculum for the fall of 2013. This award-winning series of books by Julia Cook teaches values in a humorous way which help children deal with the challenges of growing up: making friends, sharing, teamwork, worry, tattling, cliques, personal space, sadness, mouthing-off, etc.

These are the same values taught in the Bible through timeless stories of God's love for us all. When children learn skills which help them respect themselves and others, they gain life-long habits of caring for - not hurting - themselves and others.

Sunday school begins at 9:30 a.m. and runs to 10:30 a.m. Christ Lutheran Church is located at 200 West Larch Street.   

For more information or to get involved call Jan at Christ Lutheran Church office 293-3705, or talk to Sunday School Coordinator Anne Weber.
