Sunday school is an integral part of our church.
It focuses on providing a good foundation to our
children about the basics of the Orthodox faith
and lessons from the Bible. The
Sunday school commences with the Gospel reading
of the day being read and its significance being
explained. Our vicar Fr.Shinu Thomas gives a short introduction.
The children are divided into different
classes based on their ages as primary, junior
and senior. They are taught Bible stories, songs,
memory verses and various other activities.
Other
than the regular classes, the Sunday school holds
various activities annually like competitions
during the picnic. The school shows an active
participation in presenting a number of programs
on the important days of the church calendar like
Christmas, Easter, Perunnal as well as on Mother’s
Day & Father’s Day.
The
school extends its activities with the children
readily taking part and expressing their various
talents at the 3-4 day OVBS [Orthodox Vacation
Bible School], Christmas Ecumenical church programs
and Christmas Talent night show held by our church.
We
are proud of our Sunday school children for their
active participation in all our activities, and
are thankful to our dedicated team of Sunday school
teachers and coordinators. We are also very thankful
for all the support we receive from the parents.
Last but not the least, we are thankful to our former Vicar
Fr. Idichandy, without whose sincere support
and guidance this would not have been possible. |
