Dear Families of Younger Ones,
At Annunciation, our Children's Sunday School follows the Godly Play program. Children have an innate sense of the presence of God. The Godly Play approach helps them to explore their faith through the stories of the Scriptures, to gain religious language, and to enhance their spiritual experience though wonder and play. It is based on Montessori principles. Our Godly Play storyteller and assistant are looking forward to welcoming your children to Godly Play. They love the children at Annunciation and the children love them! They seek to respect all children. They warmly welcome kids of all abilities and backgrounds. |

A typical Sunday at Annunciation for the children:
*Our Sunday School teachers and volunteers receive a thorough and professional background check as well as training in the Episcopal Church's Safeguarding God's Children.
- Children gather in the church with their families at the start of the 10:00am service.
- After the opening hymn and opening collect (prayer), children are dismissed for Sunday School, usually around 10:10am.
- The Godly Play classroom is the green room with the glass door right behind the church.
- The children will rejoin their families in the church at the Peace (the mid-point in the service) and stay for Communion and the final hymn. We believe communion is important for families to share together.
