Sunday School

When: Sundays, 10:45-11:30 AM
Where: Lower Level South; Rooms S1-N25
Children in grades K-5 are invited to share in FRC’s Sunday School experience. Through drama, music, and activities in both large group and small group settings, the kids will begin to experience for themselves who God is, how He sees them and how much He loves them. Our children are invited to be an active part of understanding how to grow in a relationship with God, and develop relationships with others around them in school, at home and in their neighborhoods. 252 BASICS, a vibrant Bible-based curriculum, will be used to guide our K-5 children in learning more about God’s big story and more about how much He genuinely loves each one of them.
