Graded Classes - through High School. For grades K-6 we use a Rotation Curriculum. Each week, children attend a different class where they make crafts, play games and other participate in other activities.  Our theme this year is "The Golden Rule".  Our Junior High (6th-8th) and Senior High (9th - 12th) classes each have their own classrooms on our second floor.

Adult Education Classes - meet in the Adult Education Room and the Parlor.

Child Care - for infants and pre-schoolers is available in the Toddler room from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm every Sunday.

Church Library - our church library has an excellent selection of both children's and Adult books for individual or group study. It is a great place to relax and browse stimulating (or just fun) Christian reading material. The library is always open.

ISABEL SUTCH LIBRARY  

New Additions for Our Teens

We just added some great nonfiction books for teenagers.  In For Young Women Only – What You Need to Know about How Guys Think, the authors, Shaunti Feldhahn and Lisa A. Rice, surveyed 404 guys between ages fifteen through twenty to find out how they really felt about girls and relationships.  I think most girls would be surprised at the results.  What advise would most guys give to girls?  Be yourself!

Let’s face it – parents are clueless.  At least that’s what our teens think.  Stupid Parents – Why They Just Don’t Understand and How You Can Help helps teens understand how to communicate with their parents to improve their relationships.  It answers common questions teens have, like -how do I get my parents to be less embarrassing? -how do I get them to give me more freedom? This book is helpful for both teens and parents.

God’s Little Devotional Book for Teens is a compilation of stories intended to motivate teens to strive for a better character and a closer relationship with God without really pushing the religious aspect.  With each short story, there is a title to describe the theme, a short anecdote relating to the title, and a Bible verse to support the theme.  The stories show how people, famous and not famous, achieved “impossible” goals under difficult circumstances.

Look for the new CD, WOW Hits 2007, with the other music CDs.  This CD has 30 of the year’s top Christian artists and hits.
