The Workshop Rotation Model (WoRM) is the Sunday School teaching model that is practiced at Sanctuary for grades 1-6. Classrooms are designed into creative media-inspired, kid-pleasing workshops that teach Bible stories and scripture. These workshops may include: art, drama, audiovisuals, computers, Bible games, music, cooking, science and prayer, and vary with each rotation. Classes rotate to new workshops each week for four or five weeks, the "rotation" period. During that 5 week period only one Bible story is taught and is repeated each week, but presented differently. The entire rotation - every workshop, every week - is focused on learning that one Bible story, emphasizing its application to daily life.


We also offer Sunday School classes for two and three year old, four year old and Kindergarten age children. These classes are taught by the same teachers throughout the school year, and are separate from our WoRM program. An age-appropriate curriculum is used to teach children at the younger level.


Youth at the Junior and Senior High level also enjoy a weekly Sunday School class that dives into deeper biblical concepts that appeal to children at their age-level. This class is taught by several adults who rotate the instruction of the class weekly.

Summer Sunday School Schedule: Children ages 4 through grade 3 meet at 10:30 am in Room 109.
This summer's theme ~ "Sports, Songs and Service" ~ is a three part experience for kids where we will play, sing and make a difference. Each week will feature a different sport, song, and service project.
