Sunday School The Sunday School at Eastside United is directed by Christian Education minister, Jenni Krall. Sunday School runs from 11:30 until 12:15 every Sunday: children begin in the church (in worship) and leave for their classes after the Kids’ Time. Every attempt is made within the Sunday School to be inclusive and welcoming. This includes finding ways to welcome new children and long-time attenders, boys and girls, children who have short and long-attention spans. It also means drawing on many images for the Holy in our programming and in the ways we talk with, and listen to, children. Children at Eastside also participate in worship - as greeters, readers, prayer writers and pray-ers, singers, special musicians, communion assistants, liturgical leaders. For these and other reasons, children may sometimes remain in worship. There is always a craft table at the back of the worship space for children who wish to remain in the worship area during service. There is also a speaker in the library for families that want to leave the worship space but continue to hear the service. ,. |
