Christian Education and Formation for Children

We encourage you to bring your children to church school at 9:00am on Sundays, as well as attending church as a family at our 8:00am and 10:00am services. During our 10:00am service we also invite children 3- 10 years old to attend the Children's Chapel.

The church school program at St. John's has been lovingly developed over the years and offers a fun and spiritually fulfilling learning experience for about 150 children and 20 teachers. The following programs are offered for each age group listed below. We invite you to come and take part in our vibrant church school community.

Nursery (ages infant to 3 years):
Our nursery room is staffed by paid child care workers and is available to your baby or toddler during the 8:00am and 10:00am services. You will find this room just outside the side entrance to the nave.

Pre-K –Grade 3:
Our Pre-K through 3rd grade classes follow the Godly Play curriculum, a curriculum developed by the Montessori schools for the use in churches. Your children will learn Old and New Testament stories by listening to the story told with props and then participating in a project based on the story of the day.

4th and 5th Grade:
Our older elementary classes follow the Living the Good News curriculum. Each week the children will participate in a short bible study based on the Gospel reading and then have the opportunity to respond to it with a craft, game or other fun project.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Ann Piper, Director of Children and Youth Ministries, at 401-245-4065 x 15.
