St Edmund's Episcopal Church San Marino

Children (K-5th Grade)

OUR COMMITMENT

Our commitment to the children is to encourage lots of questions, participation in and a better understanding of the Bible, Sunday worship and our Episcopal faith.
We also pledge to make this growth in Christ fun! Sunday School is a place where we play, grow and serve.

CHILDREN’S LITURGY

Children’s Liturgy is every Sunday at 10 am in the chapel. We open with music, prayers and a short homily. Students assist in every part of the service, while learning about vestments, prayers, creeds as well as the significance of things like fire, water and color in worship.
Families are welcome to worship together, particularly if parents would like to see their child assist in leadership. The service concludes about 10:30 am after which students go to the Sunday school rooms for age appropriate discussions, games, crafts and snacks. Parents are welcome to join worship in the main sanctuary or stay with any child that is anxious or needs additional assistance

SUNDAY SCHOOL

Sunday School is available every Sunday for children kindergarten through high school. With the help of a curriculum called “Explore the Bible” we are studying the bible book by book. Students are interacting with the main characters, what their lives were like and how God worked through them. In class we use lots of maps, archeology as well as crafts, games, cooking and music.
All classrooms are upstairs above the fellowship center. Children can be dropped off and picked up in their classrooms. Parents are welcome to stay with children who are anxious or shy.

Infants and Toddlers: Our infants and toddlers are placed in the care of our professional and trained child-care workers. Infant and Toddler Care is upstairs with the Sunday school classrooms.

OTHER EVENTS

In addition to our regular gatherings there are special events nearly every month; some for service, others simply for fun.
