The Catholic faith should be engrained in our youngsters from as early an age as possible, with the infinite love Jesus has for them filling their minds. Sunday School seeks to accomplish that.
Any child who is 3-5 years old (and potty trained) at the time of registration is eligible for our Sunday School program, which is run by a group of generous adults (Brianne Thelen, Bethany Schneider, Elizabeth Nurenberg and Beth Hurren) and enthusiastic high school helpers. We show the youngsters that it's not only important to learn about God, but — with plenty of activities, arts, crafts and games — incredibly fun too!
Please contact Brianne Thelen at 616-902-6165 if you have any questions about our Sunday School program.
