CHRISTIAN EDUCATION for CHILDREN & YOUTH

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION for CHILDREN & YOUTH:

Like you, we treasure our children, & want them to experience the love of our Lord Jesus Christ, & have a firm foundation in the Christian faith.

Yes, we have a Sunday School:

For children aged 4—12 years—during the 10:30 a.m. service on Sundays, beginning after Labour Day in September, & ending with the St. Barnabas Patronal Festival & picnic in the park in June.

We encourage participation of children of all ages in our worship services & church events throughout the year. We look forward especially to their participation during the Advent candle-lighting ceremonies, & the Christmas Eve Family service (4 p.m.) in December, & our Easter Sunday celebration story-time.

We also help our children understand about our church’s mission in the world by encouraging the Sunday School’s support of a foster child through World Vision of Canada.

Confirmation preparation is available:

For young people aged 12 years & older who are ready to make a more mature study of the Christian faith, & affirm for themselves the promises made on their behalf at their Baptism. Classes take place at the church, at times convenient for the candidates involved.
