Sunday
School - Our
Sunday School is held during the worship service time, but starts
at 10:20, not 10:30. Children are escorted back
to the worship service by the teacher, in time for Holy Communion.
We have 2 classes, ages Kindergarten-grade 3 and grades 4-6.
Both classes are using the Bible based “Faithweaver” curriculum.
Our children under age 5 attend the nursery, with our full time
nursery attendant, Elizabeth. Bible stories and songs are learned
in the nursery setting. Our Sunday School teachers are Nancy
Nadel, Jodi Rinaldi, Nicky Zaiser, Johanna Salemink, Donna Lintz,
and Maty Young. We do not have Sunday School during the summer
months. There is a nursery every Sunday.
Vacation Bible School - We are planning to have Vacation Bible
School this summer (2010). Stay tuned for updates! We look forward
to using
our
new
church home
in Odessa.
Adult Bible Study is
held each Monday night at the home of Gerrit and Johanna Salemink.
This group chooses which book of the Bible
they want to study, alternating Old and New Testament. They have
studied Paul’s letters, Revelation, Daniel, Ecclesiastes, and
Job. No previous Bible study experience is necessary, as all are
welcome! Contact the Saleminks or the church office if you are interested.

responsibilities as members of the church. These classes are taught
