Sunday School

Sunday School is available for all children birth through fifth grade beginning at 9:20 am on Sunday morning. They will have a time for music, Bible lesson, and crafts before dismissing at 10:15 am. Each week students hear the Good News of Jesus' death and resurrection and are exposed to a substantial scope of Bible stories. Sunday School is held year round, except on select holidays and other special church events. Summer Sunday school starts in June and goes through Rally Day in September. Watch for summer schedule and other announcements in Reflections.  For more information contact Kaja Mueller.

Memory Work

In building a strong foundation of faith for our children, we believe it is important to begin teaching some of the core components of the catechism at an early age.  These will be taught in the classroom, and we encourage parents to work on them at home as well.  At the end of the school year, children will have the opportunity to share memory work and songs during Sunday worship on The Bible is Right Sunday.

What are the benefits to memory work?

  • We use memory work for our everyday experiences
  • Certain facts must be memorized for quick recall and retrieval
  • Memory can become part of our life and this memorized information can be internalized and become part of a student’s life patterns and belief system
  • Can assist students to think more sharply and utilize and apply information

Benefits of memorizing scripture passages, hymns, books, of the bible

  • When this is accomplished we can look up/quote scriptural sections easier
  • Selected scripture and hymns can be recited to give strength and encouragement in times of distress and pain
  • Reminds the students of their beliefs and provides strength to live accordingly
  • Has learning potential

What is Our Redeemer’s goal?  

Memory selections that:

  • Are carefully chosen on the basis of their meaning and value for living and sharing the Christian faith.
  • Correlate with the student’s moral and spiritual development and adapted to meet differences in memorizing ability.
  • Are taught meaningfully and enjoyably.
  • Are meaningfully applied to the life of the student.
