We would like to start Sunday School each Sunday at 9:45 AM and go to 10:45 AM. Teachers and leaders, including nursery workers, need to arrive between 9:30 and 9:40 AM. Teachers should remain in their classrooms until 10:45 AM. Choir members are asked to remain with their classes until 10:40 AM. This schedule provides a 15-minute period for transition to the worship service and interfacing with other members. These changes are to give more time for fellowship and learning activities. Our teachers spend time preparing their lessons, and some are left with only 20 to 30 minutes to lead their classes in learning activities, due to a late start time, members arriving late, and choir members leaving early. In Adult classes, it is suggested that a fellowship and prayer time be held from 9:45- to 10:00, and that the teaching/learning session start promptly at 10:00 AM. This will provide a minimum of 40 minutes for the learning period. Most churches who place strong emphasis on Christian maturity and effective learning have a schedule similar to this. Your cooperation with the new time schedule will be appreciated. |
