Program
Our Sunday School curriculum is well-rounded and diverse, featuring religious education, music, and special projects. Each month, students receive a spiritual message in the sanctuary, enhancing their connection to faith. Our engaging program introduces them to a range of spiritually and culturally significant topics, ensuring a relevant learning experience.
The current curriculum is provided by the Christian Education Council under the direction of the Western Diocese and our teachers incorporate additional material.
