Learning & Education

 

There are many opportunities to learn and grow with us.  Look at some of the opportunities we have for youth and adults.

 

Adult Christian Education

Attention, open in a new window.

On Sundays, adults attend a varied series of lectures, studies, and reflections in the Parish Hall or in the Davis Room. Within our parish community many academic and professional backgrounds are represented, making for sometimes lively discourse.

Pre-School

 


The mission of St. Stephen's Episcopal Preschool is to offer an educational program grounded in the Word of God that nurtures the whole person of every child under our care. By careful and constant attention to social, emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, and creative growth, an educational experience is presented that fosters the love of learning and growth in a warm and welcoming community that mirrors God's love for all God's children.

For Kindergarten through the Fifth Grade, children may attend Church School on Sundays (see schedule above). The basis of our program is the much lauded Episcopal Children's Curriculum, which provides age and lectionary appropriate materials for Kindergarten, Primary, and Intermediate age levels.


Also, nursery care is available for children up to the age of four during Sunday services.



Church School


From Kindergarten through the Fifth Grade, children attend Church School
on Sundays (see schedule above). The basis of our program is the much lauded Episcopal Children's Curriculum, which provides age and lectionary appropriate materials for Kindergarten, Primary, and Intermediate age levels. Our returning staff is well-acquainted with this fine program, which provides ample opportunities for teachers and guests to interact with the children about our Scriptural and Sacramental faith, through each of the Shell, Cross, and Chalice years of the ECC. Good habits of attendance and immersion in our rich scripture and worship are the basis of spiritual and moral development for our children. Parents and children alike are nurtured and encouraged to live into their baptismal covenant through this most important enterprise of Christian Education, which is an Incarnational witness ministry to God in Christ.


Nursery


God has blessed us with a burgeoning community of infants and toddlers along with our young families. Nursery care is available for children up to the age of four during Sunday services. A nursery worker aided by youth and adult volunteers help to provide a cheerful atmosphere for these most important little ones, who are the growth of the church!
