Welcome to the St. George Religious Education Program
As a direct ministry of the Church, the mission of the Sunday School Program is to teach the children of our parish, ages three through twelfth grade, about Jesus Christ through the blessings and fullness of our Orthodox Faith by offering programs and events throughout the calendar year.
The members of the Sunday School family are always looking forward to sharing this rewarding and awesome experience with all of our children. There are several ways for parents to help volunteer throughout the year as well.
A small snack is provided to all children before entering Sunday School class.
Below please find links and information to help you learn more about this important branch of our Church.
If you have any questions, or would like to volunteer, please email the director, Kristen Russo, and put Sunday School in the subject line.
Fr. Andrew blesses the students' backpacks to help kick off the new school year.
