Christian Education Department (CED)

The Christian Education Department sponsors the "Sunday School" of the church which meets at 9:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. from the Sunday after Labor Day to the Sunday before Memorial Day. Small Group Educational Opportunities (SGEO) are provided for all age groups from age 2 and on. We are currently using the Group Publication's "Faithweaver" series as our main curriculum due to its excellent basic Christian content and the way it integrates the same topic through all age ranges with age appropriate emphasis for each particular level.
