Teaching Sunday School - Sunday, September 13, 2009






















Today I did something I never expected to do, teach Sunday School, and especially to pre-schoolers through 6th grade. Our church does not have a large congregation, so this year we decided to try a one-room school approach, with pre-schoolers through 6th graders all together for the initial Worship and introduction to the day's lesson theme. (Jr High and High school kids meet with the Pastor and his wife at a different time for their program). After Worship and the lesson, the pre-schoolers go off to their classroom with their teachers and the elementary kids stay and break up into workable size and age groups to work with their teachers on the lesson, projects, and crafts. Carol Covlin and I are the two main facilitators who lead the worship and intro to the lesson. Today, I was Moses, leading the Israelites to and through the Red Sea, protected by pillars of clouds and fire, as Pharaoh and his Egyptians were coming up from behind.
