Sunday school, Confirmation, Bible studies (small group ministries), Sunday's Adult Forum, and vacation Bible school (summer) are offered. A new addition for 2008 is the Shepherd Book Club.

SUNDAY CHURCH SCHOOL |
|
Shepherd's Sunday Church School meets each Sunday at 10:30 a.m. during the school year. Our dedicated staff of caring, loving teachers guide students from age 2 through 5th grade as they learn Bible stories through exciting alternatives to traditional Sunday School lessons. Through the use of drama, science, arts and crafts, service projects, and Bible study, students get involved and learn through a variety of activities. The creativity, experience, and energy of our teaching staff mean that children are engaged and inspired -- and even eager to come to church on Sunday! We invite you to bring your child to our Sunday Church School and Let Your Light Shine!
