Education and Spiritual Growth at AUMC

by Ali Manoli

Children's programs are alive and well at AUMC -- Currently 6-8 families with children are participating in one activity or another. If you are interested in helping with any program, or want to offer funding or resources, please contact the church office, or the person in charge of that program. To keep you updated, the education committee would like to give you a few brief notes:

Sunday School

Alice Bartlett is in charge assisted by Edith Hokman. Sunday School is during the service except for the first Sunday of the month (communion.) If you are interested in taking a Sunday or two (much appreciated) -- Alice has the sign up sheet. Curriculum provided. All you need is interest, willingness to give a little time on Sunday morning, and ability to have a good time with children.

Childcare

Jenny Lynne is the provider, assisted (on demand) by Tori Manoli. Backup communication is in effect every Sunday between the nursery and the Sanctuary through walkie-talkies so parents can relax and enjoy the service. The Manoli family and Edith Hokman are manning the walkie-talkies.

Acolytes

Ali Ware is the coordinator. This is open to either adults or children. Currently acolytes are participating during the first Sunday of each month, for the communion service in the Sanctuary. We will rotate acolytes so time demand is very limited. If you are interested, we will be having training soon, please contact us.

Adults have opportunities to learn at AUMC as well. Several of our education activities are geared to both children and adults, such as our acolytes program or Intergenerational Bible Study.

Intergenerational Bible Study

Our intergenerational Bible Study meets on  Sunday at 6:30 in the Pastor's Office.  The Parables is the current topic of study.
