In order to keep your children safe and remain connected to our church during Covid-19, our Sunday School teachers have worked hard to provide a Sunday Sunday program delivered to your home!  Kits are prepared for 4 weeks at a time, so that pick-up or delivery will be just once a month rather than every week!  We will advertize whenever kits will be available to pick up at church, or we will happily deliver them to your home!

Thank you to our faithful teachers, Ann Tait, Lesley Anthony, Tammy Dunbar, Elizabeth Gallant and Naomi Sharpe! 

For info, contact our parish office at 328-4304.

All your children shall be taught by the Lord, and great shall be the peace of your children.  Isaiah 54:13

What children say about At Home Sunday School

Watch and smile.

Some of the children from our At Home Sunday School sent in a video introducing themselves and sharing something they enjoyed about the At Home Sunday School program of 2020-2022 during the Covid-19 pandemic. They are precious! Thank you to the parents for sending in the clips and to Lesley Anthony for compiling the video.

Parable of the Sower

February 7, 2021

Hello friends!

How many of you noticed the mistake I made last week? Last week's video was the Parable of the Good Samaritan, not the Parable of the Sower, like I had in the title! But that's okay. We all make mistakes, and you know what, God still loves us! 

This week we have the Parable of the Sower. Look, listen, and feel the parable, and ask yourself, "What does this mean for me?" 

The Parable of the Sower

January 31, 2021

Welcome back, friends!

Today we have another parable. Parables were Jesus's way of teaching us how to live. Remember, it can sometimes be hard to enter a parable, but don't worry. We all learn in our own way and our own time. 

Your Sunday School Teachers hope you enjoy your kit this week!
