| About our Sunday School Curriculum | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Parents of toddlers have a new option during service on Sundays at Park Church. We are starting Christian education for our two and three-year-olds! When children are dismissed for Sunday school, toddlers are invited to head for the Church Nursery, where they will take part in a short, age-appropriate lesson. Parents are welcome to accompany little ones and take part in the lesson, or remain in service.
Once the lesson is completed, children in the Nursery will be supervised by our Nursery Attendant Brittney Tinsley. Lessons will be planned and led by Laural Seewer, mom of Charlie. Laural is creative and well organized, and we are excited to have her provide leadership to this new area of Christian education. If you have any questions about content or structure, please feel free to contact Laural. | |||||
