This week in Sunday school

Sunday, April 13th

One of the biggest commonalities across Christian traditions is the prayer that Jesus taught his disciples to say - but it’s not always very clear what it means! For the next few weeks, we’re going to be exploring different parts of the Lord’s Prayer, and creating a major art piece for the church about it.

This week, we’ll be coming to the end of the Lord’s Prayer: Deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

But first, because it’s Palm Sunday, we’ll be processing through the church - exceptionally, Sunday School starts with everyone down in the main service!

On the second and fourth Sundays of each month, Sunday School will be in person at St. Matthias’. We’re conscious of the need to maintain cleanliness and good ventilation, and we’re asking our families to do their part, too! We encourage anyone with a fever to stay home, and runny noses will be required to wear masks. We have our own pediatric masks available for anyone who develops a need during Sunday School, too. For more information about our in-person plan, drop us a line!

This semester, we’re spending time with the mysteries of the Church, exploring rituals, objects, ceremonies, and more. As we follow the liturgical calendar, we’ll discover the ways that the different seasons of our life as a community teach us lessons we can use in our whole lives. And, during the big season of Lent, we’ll dive into the Lord’s Prayer to unpack the way Jesus taught us to pray.

We’re also looking for volunteers to come and spend time with the Sunday School so that Janet and Jessica can take alternate Sundays off. If you’re interested in being part of our little community, please get in touch with Fr. Patrick.

This week, we continued through the middle of the prayer: Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation.

Sunday, April 27th

Like we do twice a year, on this First Sunday after Easter we’ll be having a Very Low Church service - in the basement! Very Low Church is an opportunity for the whole congregation to participate in Sunday School, so we have an opportunity to be good hosts and help others learn about the ways that we pray, talk, play, and create together.
