Sunday School

I grew up going to Sunday school at church, literally from birth. I still go but now my class is full of adults. I still love it though, small group lessons, with people that I can fellowship with after class and then head to the service hour with.

What’s unfortunate is that I don’t think many churches do this anymore. Between researching other churches and attending them sporadically to see what they’re all about I found in interesting to see that although there are churches with great services, and well run small group ministries, there’s not as much adult fellowship on Sundays in some cases because there’s not really any Sunday school classes past middle or high school.

Sunday school may not even be the right word for it, but I love that the church I’ve gone to for nearly a decade, as well as the others I’ve had the privilege of attending in my life have offered this wonderful ministry. I mean, even my parents and grandparents attend Sunday school classes every week between services with people their age and then we all get the chance to grab coffee with the rest of the church after or before, without Sunday school there wouldn’t be a need for me to be an hour and fifteen minutes early for the service and hang out with friends, converse with the youth group that I volunteer with or see my grandparents at church before class.

So if you get the chance to attend a church that has Sunday school for all ages, do it. I think you’ll be happy with the experience.

Written in honor of all the people who have taken the time to be Sunday school teachers in my life as well as other’s.
