To
help describe the youth Sunday school classes
we thought it would be best to ask the youth themselves
to tell us what they think of Sunday school. We
interviewed 3 youth, here is what they had to
say.
What
happens during your Sunday school time?
I
read stories and play games about the children
of Israel. We sing songs and learn about Bible
people and the Israelites. - Alicia P. (K-2 class)
We
usually start with our story, then we do some
activities, our memory verse, then our leaflets.
- Nathan S. (3-5 class)
We
sit on chairs and talk about things, not always
the lesson, either. Sometimes we just have a conversation.
Sometimes the conversation is about the lesson,
other times it's not. - Claire S. (Senior High
class )
What
have you been learning about?
Jacob
and Esau. - Alicia P.
A
lot of parables lately, but it changes. - Claire
S.
I
think we've been learning about David but I think
we started something new. - Nathan S.
Who
is your Sunday school teacher? What makes her/him
a good teacher?
Nancy
and Margaret. They find ways to do things to do
with Hanna and me. - Nathan S.
Mary.
She explains the Bible stories better. - Alicia
P.
Jim!
Jim makes the Sunday school experience go round...or
square...or something like that. He's pretty crazy.
He doesn't approach the lesson as if he's the
teacher and we're the students. He gets into the
conversation with us. - Claire S.
How
has Sunday school helped you grow in your faith?
It's
a good time to talk with other Christians, to
see what's going on in their life, etc. - Claire
S.
It
has helped me understand the Bible but Mathew's
sermons are interesting and encourage my faith.
- Nathan S.
I
learn about God. - Alicia P.
What
is your favorite part of Sunday school?
When
the Wonder Kids say their questions. Singing songs.
- Alicia P.
All
of it!!! - Nathan S.
When
it's over! Just kidding. Sunday school isn't structured,
it's basically one big blob of talk. But that's
alright by me. I like it that way. When we do
the lesson Jim will ask us a few questions, then
we go to scripture reading and then we talk about
that. It's interesting (in a good way) to hear
othr people's interpretation of scripture. -Claire
S.
(Thanks
Claire, Alicia and Nathan for your great responses!)
