Sunday School

Having God-fearing parents is truly a blessing and God-fearing children are a blessing in return. We thank all parents for supporting their children and encouraging them in their religious instruction.

PRAISE GOD, FROM WHOM ALL
BLESSINGS FLOW.
PRAISE HIM ALL CREATURES HERE BELOW;
PRAISE HIM ABOVE, O HEAV'NLY HOST;
PRAISE FATHER, SON, AND HOLY GHOST.

On Mother's Day the children sang a special song
in the worship service. After the service, the
children handed a flower to all the women
in the congregation.

Sunday, May 23, is Promotion Sunday . . . a day when the
children receive certificates for attendance and memory
work completion. A special treat will be given by Pastor
Dave to the children in grades 1 through 6 who have read
eight or more weekly Bible Bookmark passages
during the third quarter.

The sixth grade students will advance to the
Faith group.

The children's offerings for March and April, amounting to $125.00, will again be given to St. Paul's "Caring Friends" fund. People helping people is what God wants us to do. Thank you, children, for sharing with the less fortunate. The weekly offerings are a blessing to others in need.

Blessings!

If your child/children attend another church for a Sunday service, for whatever reason, please bring a worship bulletin back from that church and give it to your child's teacher. Credit will be given for attendance toward earning an attendance certificate at the end of the school year. Certificates will be given as follows:

PERFECT 0 - Times Absent

EXCELLENT 1 or 2 Absences

VERY GOOD 3 or 4 Absences

GOOD 5 Absences

          To encourage our Sunday School children to read God's Word, the Bible Bookmark Program is offered. This is a daily reading for students in Grades 1 through 6. Each Sunday, the children will receive a bookmark to guide them in studying a weekly topic. Upon completion of the daily readings each week, parents initial the bookmark for return to the child's teacher. An incentive will be given to those children who complete eight out of thirteen weeks each quarter.

          Another important aspect of our Sunday School is memorization of Bible passages, the Ten Commandments, and the Apostles' Creed. A "St. Paul's Sunday School Handbook" is supplied to each child and this book covers memorization for each grade level.

          It is our hope and intent to keep all the children in the Word so that none of Jesus' lambs go astray.

If you are interested in having your child/children join our Sunday School, please call the church office any weekday morning to register...414.355.5030. Remember, Sunday School begins at 10:15 a.m., following the 9:00 a.m. Sunday worship service, September through May.

"Train up a child in the way he should go;

even when he is old he will not depart from it."
