Sunday School is offered for children 3 years old through the 6th grade. Classes are held in the lower level of the building. Sunday School opens every week at 9:30am with kids coming together to sing praise songs. Staffed by dedicated teachers, this is an important part of the children's educational program here at Bethesda. Lessons are taught from the Bible in a style and at a level appropriate to the maturity of the students. What a fun and meaningful way to learn about Jesus and to begin to make lifelong friends!
Junior Church
Junior Church is held during the 10:45am Worship Service and is designed for children 3 years old through the 3rd grade. Preschoolers who have attended Sunday School move directly to Preschool Junior Church. School age children are dismissed from their Sunday School classes to begin the 10:45am Worship Service with their parents in the sanctuary. After corporate worship in song with the adults and older children, these children are dismissed at a scheduled time to meet their Junior Church teacher in the foyer. The kids are then led to their Junior Church classroom in the lower level, where Bible based age appropriate teaching and activity await!
