Sunday School for 2023-202

We gather for Sunday School for 4-year-olds through 5th Graders on Sunday mornings at 10 a.m. If the temperature is 55 degrees and above and the weather is dry, we will hold Sunday School outdoors on the nature trail at the back of the campus, near the Youth Education Building. If it is chilly or rainy we will gather in the Block Room before breaking into smaller groups. Please contact Amelia McDaniel with any questions or for more information.

Children’s Chapel

Children’s Chapel is held during the 11 o’clock service. Children are invited during the Gospel hymn to come with Amelia and the clergy to the Block Room. During this time, children hear the Gospel story, have time for prayer, and sing. They return to the service at the Peace.

Nursery on Sunday Mornings

Our nursery is open for infants through children aged 4. Our nursery staff, headed by Meg Zehmer, is ready to care for our youngest members. Nursery opens at 8:45 a.m. on Sunday mornings and runs through the end of the 11 a.m. service.

Volunteer with Children’s Ministries!

The outdoor format for Sunday School means we need parent volunteers who are willing to check-in kids to Sunday School, pass out snacks, and guide kids from a big group setting to a smaller classroom. These volunteer roles require no preparation and are flexible around your availability. The hope is to build a team of 15-20 parents willing to rotate every few weeks to assist with Sunday School. Or go straight to the sign-up genius link here to go ahead and sign up! If you are interested, contact Amelia McDaniel at amcdaniel@stmarysgoochland.org.
