Children and Youth Program – Now Recruiting Teachers for 2013-14 Program Year

The Children and Youth program is currently recruiting teachers for the 2013-14 program year!  This week we are focusing our recruiting efforts on the 6th grade Neighboring Faiths class.  This curriculum investigates the world’s major faith traditions through classroom discussion and field trips to various houses of worship.  Are you interested in learning more about other faith traditions?  Do you have deep knowledge of a faith tradition you would like to share?  If so, this is the class for you!  To learn more stop by the SGD table in the Social Hall after service or contact Sandy Garges, Director of Spiritual Growth and Development, at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Each SGD class enjoys a 4-person teaching team.  The co-teachers alternate classroom responsibilities with each teacher leading one class per month and assisting one class per month.  This system allows the teachers and children to build relationship throughout the year.  Congregants who have participated in our congregation for at least one year are eligible to serve as teachers.
