WELCOME BACK! IT'S SUNDAY SCHOOL TIME! (Sunday mornings)
We look forward to seeing everyone and having a special time together learning about God and His Word.
Sundays - 10:00-11:00 a.m.
EDUCATION
Sunday School classes are offered for children of all ages every Sunday, September through June. Our classes follow the Lifeway “Bible Studies for Life” curriculum. We value each child and family that comes to our church. We encourage children to have a personal relationship with God. We believe it is important to support children spiritually at home as well as at church so parents can be involved in their learning.
Preschool - Elementary:
In this class children learn bible stories through story time and hands-on learning. They also spend time learning songs of praise with our music leader.
Middle School:
At this level, students study bible stories in depth and learn the books of the bible and bible verses. Students start to apply biblical concepts to life. Students learn about helping others and giving back to the community.
High School:
Students in this class dig deeper into the meaning of scripture and learn how to apply it to their own daily lives. They are encouraged to focus on their spiritual journey through engaging conversations and personal reflection.
Children’s Church
During our regular Sunday worship service, children of all ages are invited to the library for Children’s Church. Our volunteers make the scripture lessons relevant to our young people in a fun and educational manner.
FELLOWSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
We like to have fun at First Prez! Some of the fellowship activities we hold throughout the year are: movie & game night, Pizza with the Pastor, Ice Cream Sundae Sunday, Crop Walk, Christmas caroling, Christmas play, and making crafts and cards for Veterans and shut-ins. Each year we choose a mission to support through fundraising.
