[SUNDAY SCHOOL STAFF]

Welcome to the Trinity Lutheran Church Sunday school information page.  We invite you to join us as we engage in study every Sunday morning throughout the school year.  Our classes begin at 9 AM and conclude at 10:15 AM for ages three thru eighth grade.

          This year we are embracing a new curriculum called Akaloo.  This is a very comprehensive educational program we are using in order to teach our young followers to grow in faith and become Disciples of Christ.  This program offers classroom lessons, games, art, music, study, drama, and online games that may be played at home to reinforce the weekly lessons.  Come and Akaloo with us!

           Along with Akaloo we also encourage our participants to sing with us every Sunday morning during music time with our church choir director, Miss Lloyd.  We perform our music monthly during the church service on the first Sunday of the month.

            We fall into our annual Sunday School Open House every autumn.  It is during this event that we invite our parents, congregation, and community to join us in the celebration of our Sunday school.  We share songs, skits, art, and our studies with all those attending.  This year we will be hosting our OPEN HOUSE on Sunday, October 7^th. 

            Every year our Sunday school students have been encouraged to support community groups with donations ranging from hats and gloves for the members of Friendship House, clothing and food for the United Neighborhood Centers , support of the Ronald McDonald House of Scranton as well as the Angel Tree project for United Cerebral Palsy. 

           Our Sunday school children share the joy of the birth of our Savior with the annual Christmas Nativity Pageant on Christmas Eve.  Every Sunday school student is given the opportunity to be in our program.  It is a performance that the congregation looks forward to every year.

           Trinity offers many programs for its young followers.  Come and share in the joy as we grow, follow and learn at Trinity.

           Our seventh and eighth grade students also participate in evening classes in confirmation studies.  The completion the studies is followed by confirmation on the Festival of Pentecost.

           The Junior and Senior High youth groups meet under the direction of our Director of Youth Ministry, Heather Klien. Our youth meet weekly to explore ideas as well as just being able to discuss relationships with God and how they are affected by these relationships.  These discussions are important to this particular age group as they are preparing for their lives as adults.  These students take part in activities that have been coordinated by the youth director  such as community service, hosting holiday events, enjoying lock ins, engaging in fun activities like miniature golf, bowling, and Knoebels and serving God by serving others. Students are always encouraged to bring a friend to participate in our activities and events. Please contact Heather Klien at HeatherKlienTLC@cs.com for more information.
