The Education Committee is very excited to kick off a brand new Rotation Sunday School program this Sunday the 26th at 9:45 am.  The program will be for all children grades K to Middle School.  The program is designed for the children to rotate to a different center each week with different learning activities set up very much like Vacation Bible School. 

Come join us as we ride through United Methodist history with John Wesley and the early Methodists. Children will experience life in the times of John Wesley and the circuit riders. It’s a great learning experience that’s fun!

• Crafts, games, and music

• Historical dramas and Bible stories

• Interest centers

• Interactive “Walk Through Wesley” timeline

• Ways to utilize the gifts and talents of the adults in your congregation

• Interactive learning experiences

Children will learn

• about our United Methodist heritage and how it has shaped who we are as people of faith

• that God inspired John Wesley and other early leaders of our church to spread the good news about Jesus throughout the world

• that God continues to call us to tell the world about Jesus today
