Sunday School Music
Earlier this year, when we were meeting for Sunday school in person, the Rev. Robert Masenheimer (Pastor Bob) our Minister of Music, led the youth in music at the beginning of Sunday school. Now that we are unable to meet in person, he has recorded the following songs for your use at home. We hope that youth (and adults) will enjoy this music in their homes. The first link is for the video of Pastor Bob playing and the second link is a pdf document with the lyrics.

We have three Sunday school classes based on grade. These classes take place on the first floor of the building on Sundays at 9:00AM.
Youth Class 1 = Nursery, Preschool, and Kindergarten
Youth Class 2 = Elemenary (grades 1-6)
Youth Class 3 = Middle School, Jr. High, and High School (grades 7-12)
For the above Youth Class 1 and Youth Class 2 we are using the Whirl curriculum in the 2014-2015 school year. You can view a video sample of the weekly cartoon by clicking on these links: Whirl - Everyone Is Welcome; Whirl - Advent; Whirl - Manners
For an overview of the curriculum, you can click on this link: Whirl Curriculum Overview
For the older youth, the 2016-2017 school year Sunday morning curriculum is called Re:Form.
