Sunday School
Nursery care is available each Sunday beginning at 9:30 am, and the Church School classes also begin at 9:30 am. Please complete a registration form for each child and return them to St. Paul’s office.
On September 19, 2010, Rector Martha Hubbard and Gail Bishop-Davis asked God’s blessing on St. Paul’s newly renovated Church School teaching space.
St. Paul’s Nursery Care
The nursery welcomes children from infancy through age 3 from 9:30am to the end of the 10:15 service each Sunday.
The goal is to offer them a safe and fun place to get acquainted with other children while
their parents are engaged in adult education, the 10:15 am worship service and fellowship.
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS)
We offer three levels of CGS – our level I Atrium for children 3 – 5 years old, level II Atrium for children 6 – 8 years old, and level III for children 9 – 11 years old.
The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Montessori based approach to religious formation based on the conviction that God and the child are in relationship. God is already present to children in their deepest being. With guidance and vocabulary, children become aware of their relationship with God and give expression to it. We have several returning and several new teachers in our CGS program. We are also looking for volunteers interested
in serving for a liturgical season (approx. 6 weeks) to learn about CGS and support the children’s work in the Atria.
