Summers at SBCC

Come Join the Fun!
If you are interested in getting involved in children's ministries and want a short term taste of it, the summers are for you. It involves commiting to 4-5 Sundays in the summer to work with the children...a wonderful gift to the church for very little time investment on your part. Contact Tricia Popp at tricia@sbcommunity.org for more information.

When?
This year the program runs from July 5-Sept 6 (for preschool) Sign ups begin in May and training is provided in June.

How?
During the summers at SBCC we run the Sunday activities a little differently than we do during the school year. We form teams of people to work with the children every other week (four to five sessions per team.) A limited “promotion” occurs in terms of regrouping the children for summer activities but not in terms of specifying Sunday school class assignments until fall. (Three Preschool/Kindergarten groups; First/Second Graders; Third/Fourth Graders) The children will be meeting in larger groups, then, which will give a VBS feel to the activities. The children always enjoy this departure from their regular structure and the leaders have fun utilizing the large group aspect.

Why?

Children from 1st-12th grade get to worship in the adult service extra Sundays.
Teachers can opt to take a break in the summer and return in the fall to continue with the regular curriculum.
Those who can't help during the school year get a chance to participate in children's ministries.
Teacher training and class assignments can take place in the fall, allowing for full participation after the summer break.
It's fun for both the children and adults participating!
