Back to School - Sunday School!

Sunday School provides a unique learning and Gospel community-building opportunity for kids and one specific expression of the promise we all make to support families in the spiritual formation of children. Each week, we study Scripture within the context of God’s big story of redemption; God is the hero of every story! We learn together in a safe environment that invites questions and conversation between peers and caring adults. We start with big concepts in our Toddler class and continue through 5th grade on a path to better understanding the Gospel narrative, and who we are individually and in community as a result. We serve together, offering children regular opportunities to serve and lead in this environment. Soon, our 5th graders will lead our Shoebox collection for Samaritan’s Purse.


Just as adults find connection, support and growth in small group time, our children develop Gospel community during this hour. As a parent, I’ve watched this in my own children and am grateful for the relationships fostered with both peers and teachers. -- And as a teacher, I can tell you that learning goes both ways. In the weeks I am preparing to teach, I am learning the most, not to mention the insight I gain from the words and actions of our children.

Cynthia Veerman, who has taught children and teens at Northwest for several years, serves because it combines her love for God’s Word with the love she has seeing children become active members of the church. “Sunday School is a time of discovery and fellowship,” she says. “It has been a joy to see how God changes the hearts of young children and makes them a vibrant part of His community.”
