Sunday School - Preschool & Elementary
At First Lutheran we strive to make Sunday school a place
where children experience the unconditional love of God and the joy that comes
with it. Through teaching, music and service projects they learn what it means
to be a follower of Christ.
Sunday school meets from 9:15 - 10:25 year around
We have a dedicated staff of teachers who make a year-long commitment, offering consistency for the students. Our teachers are carefully screened and background checked.
Preschool
The preschool Sunday school program is all about laying the biblical ground work for our youngest learners. Through stories, games, finger plays and music, the seeds of God’s love are planted for the preschooler.
Kindergarten thru 5th grade
Kids meet in Fellowship Hall for music and a short lesson before heading off to their classrooms.
6th and 7th grade
Youth meet upstairs in the Peel House at 9:15 am - 10:30 am for Sunday school.

Additional Opportunities for Children
There are numerous additional opportunities for younger children to be involved in the First Lutheran community. Please visit our music page to learn about bell choir opportunities and our Gallery of Living Art page.
Middle and high school youth groups
We work to develop our youth into mature leaders for the mission of Jesus. Through weekly meeting, Sunday school classes, retreats, and leadership training we create fully committed followers of Jesus. Our youth love one another and develop a community that is both closely knit and welcoming. Our director of youth and children’s ministry, Shelly Schmidt, is always available for conversation and mentoring.
Middle School
We have Sunday school for our 6th and 7th graders which meets in the Peel House at 9:15 am. This is our pre-confirmation class.
We have Confirmation class for 8th and 9th graders taught by Pastor Carrie Baylis at 9:15 am on Sundays in the Fireside room.
Our middle school youth also have the opportunity to be part of the KICK Team (Kids In Christ Helping Kids.) The KICK team helps in the ministry of Preschool and K-5 age group kids.
High School Youth Group
With the hiring of our new youth director we are currently in the planning stages for how youth group will look for the summer. We’ve hired two college aged youth interns who will be planning events and posting them here. So stay tuned.

High School students can serve as Sunday School Shepherds and assist in teaching the faith to our children during Sunday school.
High School Bell Choir is called the Celebration Ringers and they meet weekly for practice and then go on a week long concert tour in the summer.
Summer Trip- Each summer the high school youth will take a trip to grow in faith, serve the community and deepen their friendships. This year, plans are underway for a “Mystery Trip”!
