CHRISTIAN EDUCATION FOR ALL AGES
We welcome and invite all ages to gather for Christian Education following Worship. Children and youth meet from 10:45am-12:00pm. Adult electives begin at 11:15am-12:00pm following coffee and
conversation. Our classes run from September - June with a break during the summer months. Christian Education classes are places of friendship and hospitality. Whether you are 3 or 93 years old, there is a place for all! Together we discern and nurture our individual and collective journey of faith.



SUNDAY SCHOOL FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH
We offer engaging Sunday School classes for children, preschool-youth including. A typical morning includes: snacks, Bible stories, music, worship, and response activities. A yearly offering project invites our children to share God’s generousity with others and be good stewards of God’s gifts.
Gather ‘Round (www.gatherround.org) is our Sunday School curriculum. It is a Bible-based Anabaptist curriculum which lifts up the teachings of Jesus, offering alternatives to world views that emphasize individualism, power and accumulation of wealth. It nurtures children and youth in becoming followers of Jesus, as people who know and love God, interpret God’s word, belong to God’s community, and share God’s good news.

Intergenerational Sundays during Advent and near Earth Day are also highlights of the Christian Education year. On these Sundays, children and adults visit different activity centres during the Sunday School hour that highlight the theme of the day.

YOUTH MINISTRY
We welcome youth and their friends into a dynamic relationship with God and others through Mennonite Youth Fellowship (MYF). This group meets with MYFs of other local Mennonite churches to form a fun and meaningful group where events are planned monthly. Our purpose of youth ministry is to provide a safe place and meaningful experiences that welcome youth into our community of faith and facilitate their being and becoming unique expressions of God’s love in the world.

MYF opportunities include: social events or service projects, youth worship experiences, Mennonite youth retreats, Mennonite Church Canada Youth Assembly, catechism, and mentoring relationships with adults.
UNG ADULT/ADULT LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES
We invite young adults and adults to attend a class of their choice. We offer three to four different electives which run for six weeks. A “Christian Education Special Event” gathers all adults together on the seventh week. The classes range in size and range in style from lectures to interactive discussion. Topics include: Bible Study, our church 106th anniversary, Christian Witness, and Christian Worship.
