2009 was a year for growth in Christian education. Education was expanded to include a time of education for children attending Worship on Wednesday. Students also began using a new curriculum called Spark. It is an engaging program that has great lessons reinforcing the Spark bible, a bible designed for young people.
More than 36 people volunteered in the Christian education program for the year 2009. This number does not reflect the numerous people jumping at the last minute or when they see more help is needed. Words are hard to find to express the many thanks to the people who help teach, lead and walk beside our children as they journey in faith.
This year there were 92 children registered in our Christian education on Sunday with pretty good attendance. 20 children attended Wednesday education time. There were 152 children enrolled in community vacation bible school.
