Messiah Lutheran Church, Knoxville TN

Thank you to our Children’s Sunday school teachers for the 2010-2011 school year:

Preschool-1st Grade: Mrs. Sue Tobey

2nd -5th Grades: Mrs. Anne Driskill (Sept.-Dec.);Mary Alice Vowell (January-March); Linda Menasco (April-May)

On Sunday September 19, 2010 during the Sunday school hour, parents of children preschool through fifth grade are encouraged to meet in the chapel narthex.  During this time they will participate with their child(ren) during the opening singing. Once the children are dismissed to class, we invite all parents to stay for the remainder of the hour. Heidi Murray will give an overview of the Sunday school curriculum for this year and discuss ways for talking to your child(ren) about each week’s lesson.

There will be no Children’s Sunday school on Labor Day weekend - Sunday, Sept. 5

Rally Day is Sunday, Sept. 12. 

Join us for Summer Sunday School

There is a summer Sunday school class for all children age preschool through fifth grade. Class is held on the lower level in the 2nd-5th grade classroom. The study this summer is on the sacraments and other fun related topics. All children are welcome to join us!

Vacation Bible School

Vacation Bible School was held June 14-17 with an average of 11 children in attendance.  Pastor Eric led the opening and several youth and adults from the congregation volunteered. The social ministry project raised over $75.00 and over 50 care kits were made.  These benefits will be mailed to Africa Jam.

Sunday school teachers are set for Fall

Mrs. Sue Tobey has graciously agreed to teach the preschool through first graders. Grades 2-5 will be taught by Anne Driskill (Sept.-Dec.), Mary Alice Vowell (Jan.-March), Open    (April and May).

Parenting Class being planned

Planning is underway for a parenting class to assist parents in understanding and following through with what their child learns in Sunday school each week. Through this class we hope to  build a network of parents so that all will have other parents to talk to about parenting issues.
