Christian Education & Church School News
The Christian Education Committee and Sunday School Teachers will be meeting after church on Sunday, January 31 to discuss the curriculum for the coming winter & spring church school season. We’re asking all teachers to download the curriculum topics and find a lesson plan for each one on rotation.org — we’ll discuss these lesson plans during the meeting.
It’s not too early to begin planning the Church Fair; in fact, it’s just the right time! If you’re interested in volunteering this year or have some ideas for advertising or activities, please contact Holly Parkis.
We’re bringing back Junior Choir! We’ll be meeting every Sunday from 10:30-11. Our first rehearsal is tentatively scheduled for February 7, and we’d love to see you there. We’re going to be learning Aaron David Miller and Herbert Brokering’s piece “The Trees of the Field,” to be performed on Palm Sunday.
Calling of the Disciples
“And he said to them, ‘Follow me, and I will make you fish for people.’” (Matthew 4:19)
Church School has begun! In our first unit, we’ll be learning about the disciples and how Jesus called us to be fishers of men. We’re going to be memorizing the disciples (with the help of a special song), playing some fun games, and making a huge mural!
Hot Dog Roast September 25
Youth Group will be meeting on the fourth Friday of every month this year! The first Youth Group event is on September 25. We’ll be heading to Hawrelak Park for an old-fashioned hot dog roast & marshmallow toast, plus games and maybe a few campfire songs. Contact youth@firstpresbyterian.ca for details.
