Christian Education at Brookside Congregational Church
 

 


photoPrograms of Christian Education at Brookside Congregational Church reflect the model provided by Jesus for learning about God and how we are to live and share God's love. This model includes constant conversation, frequent and regular gathering times for worship and prayer, to make the sharing of insights and learning an ongoing part of our lives.

Our educational offerings seek to engage teachers and learners in conversation about matters of faith with opportunities for interaction between generations. No matter how old we are, the work of living in faith continues as long as we live.

Assessment and Evaluation of Christian Education Program Begins...

Church School

Our programs embrace learners of all ages. The Infant/Toddler Room is open to receive children (up to the age of 3) at 9:45 a.m. so that parents may leave their child before entering the Sanctuary for worship at 10:00.

photoChildren from 3 years of age through the seventh grade attend worship with us through the Children's Story, after which they leave the Sanctuary for their classrooms. Classes are led by volunteer teachers using a theme based Bible Curriculum from Standard Publishing.

Sunday School concludes at 11:15 a.m. Parents are asked to respect this ending time in the event that morning worship ends early.

Young teens in 8th grade participate in a Confirmation Class (led by the pastor and/or C.E. Director) beginning late in the fall and continuing through the winter with Confirmation Sunday scheduled in the spring.

Summer Sunday School
Each week during the summer, crib room care is available from 9:45 to 11 a.m., and classes for preschoolers run from 10:15 (following the children's story) to 11 a.m.

New Ideas for Church School in 2008-09

Thank you, thank you to the many teachers and assistants who have worked with our children during the Church School hour this past year. The 2008-09 church school year looks to be quite exciting. The C.E. Board has chosen a new curriculum and an exciting new concept for providing Christian Education to our for preschool children through 7th grade youth.

Adults and high school aged teens are encouraged to come to a short presentation right after church on May 18 in Fellowship Hall. Please contact Ed Mitchell (345-4335) if you have questions.
