Covenant’s Education Philosophy

 

WHAT ARE WE TRYING TO TEACH?

Well, certainly all of our lessons are rooted in scripture, and all are taught in a way that is faithful to our Lutheran heritage. But, beyond learning the stories, and beyond the application of stories and themes to the faith journey we walk, we believe that there are three important things we want your children to know, every time they walk through the doors of Covenant:

  1. They are loved by the kids they learn with.
  2. They are loved by the adults of this congregation.
  3.  Most of all, they are loved by God. No matter what.
  • Children’s Time
    • Each week during Worship service, any children in attendance are invited to the front of the church to sit with the Pastor, listen to a special message that is created for them and then we pray together as a congregation. The message is based on the sermon and delivered in a way to engage the children.
  • Sunday School (age 3 to grade 6)
    • Age 3 – Grade 1:  This is a hands-on curriculum that is geared toward younger children and keeping them engaged.
    • Grade 2 – Grade 6:  There is a focus on a monthly Bible story. Understanding the story and what can be taken away from the story and used in their own lives.
  • 7th and 8th Grade Confirmation
    • Ready to affirm the promises you made in baptism and explore your relationship with Christ? Throughout the journey of confirmation, we will walk together in learning more about our walk of faith.
  • High School Youth Group
    • High Schoolers have an opportunity to spend time with each other, have fun in the church, and grow in faith.
  • VBS 
    • Sharing Smiles, Friendships, Fun, and the Love of God all week long! Visit our VBS Newsletter to learn more or watch this VBS video to capture the pure joy we shared together during this Fun Filled Summer Adventure with Lutherdale Camp Staff!
