Christian Education

Christian Education at First Reformed Scotia carries through to all ages.  We feel that all education, service, fellowship and social programs are a way to continue to grow and bloom as a child of Christ.

Along with Christian Education on Sunday for birth to 12th grade students, we offer Adult and inter-generational opportunities throughout the year.  Some of our offerings include Bible Studies, Small Groups, Book Clubs, and more!

We offer Sunday school classes at 10:30 a.m. for children age 4 through grade 12. Children and youth leave the sanctuary prior to the sermon for their own time of learning Christ’s way. Classes are held from September through June and are taught by volunteers. Here’s a bit about our Sunday School Classes:

Nursery Care: Birth to 4 years

Children meet in the nursery for an introduction to Bible stories and free play. Our nursery director leads our littlest ones in Bible themed story time. Our nursery has age appropriate toys, manipulatives, floor and table space for play and projects. We have changing area, rocking chairs and rest rooms within the nursery.

Sunday School: Kindergarten to 6th grade

Our Sunday School model uses workshop approach to religious education, giving students hands on activities and a variety of experiences to connect with Bible themes.  Within each theme, students experience workshops such as Science, Art, Storytelling, Video, Drama, Music, Games and more, to best facilitate authentic learning.

Junior/Senior High: 7-12th grade

Students have the opportunity to explore a variety of learning methods in our Jr. / Sr. High program. By using inquiry-based themes, service centered projects and conversation and real life situations, students better connect with their faith and the world around them.

Adult Education:

We have many opportunities for lifelong learners. We offer a variety of discipleship experiences ranging from individual bible study, faith discovery and personal journeys to special events, group study, book recommendations, clubs, workshops, conferences, retreats, volunteer opportunities, outreach, and more.
