Family Faith Sunday School lessons

Family Faith lessons are held the first Sunday of each month in a hybrid form. Join in-person or via Zoom while a teacher presents a Bible story, a lesson, and a craft or activity that you can do together as a family. On the other weeks of the month, we’ll share at-home lessons and activities that families can do together. If you’d like to be added to the list to receive these resources and reminders about upcoming teacher-led lessons, please email Desirae or Jen.
