My Family and Me

 

My Family and Me is the new emphasis of Sunday morning Christian Education at Peace launched in the fall of 2008. It has the following desired outcomes:

• That Peace makes “Disciples and Followers” of Jesus
• Help Families Worship Together each weekend
• Help Parents grow into the role of spiritual leaders for their children
• Help Families “grow together” rather than “pulled apart” with busy-ness

 

Unique Aspects of My Family and Me: Each month there will be a “My Family and Me” event for each age group. For example:

 

One month the parents join in the Sunday School Class with their children/youth not as “observers” but to “help teach the lesson” to their child.

The next month the entire family joins together in the sanctuary at 9:30 a.m. for a special “family worship service” and the Sunday School leaflet is simply a “take home and read” piece picked up at the end of the service.
