Christian Education
We welcome and invite everyone to gather for Christian Education following a time of fellowship and refreshments after the worship service. Classes are planned from September to June, with a break during the summer months.
Christian Education classes offer a place for faith formation, friendship and hospitality.
We strive to nurture children and youth by providing a safe, open and welcoming learning community.
Adults are encouraged and challenged to grow in faith and faithful discipleship.
Children's Sunday School
Children's Sunday School is offered after the Sunday service, from 11am-12pm during the months of September to June. This is a time for children to learn, play, and grow together.
Curriculum
The MennoMedia "Shine" curriculum provides the framework for our Sunday school classes. Sessions follow a five-part sequence: Prepare, Connect, Encounter, Explore, and Empower.
The current winter session focuses on Jesus' Ministry with stories from the book of Matthew.

Adult Education
We believe that the study of the Christian faith and our discernment of faithful discipleship are a life-long endeavour. The Adult Education program provides an opportunity to explore our beliefs and questions about the Bible, learn about our Anabaptist/Mennonite faith and identity, discuss current events, and consider a faithful response to a wide variety of issues.
Whether regular attenders or visitors, all are invited to join the conversation.
Our Adult Education program is tasked with supporting the vision of the congregation through a program of Adult Christian Education following Sunday morning worship. Classes are offered approximately three times per month, utilizing both congregational members and outside resource speakers. On non-class Sundays, casual conversation over coffee and refreshments encourages fellowship and community building.
A planning team consisting of the Adult Education Coordinator, and pastor, and other volunteers meet to plan, promote, organize, and implement the classes. The program year runs from September through June.
