Adult Education
The church offers a variety of learning opportunities for adults. Sunday morning classes are led by the pastors, church members or visitors with expertise on particular topics.
The Adult Education offerings for Fall 2007 through Spring 2008 are summarized on the Adult Education web page, available by clicking HERE. Also, brief outlines are provided in the current online Stone News.
High School Youth Group
Stone Church has an active High School Youth Fellowship. Group activities include Bible Study, Camping and Mission work trips. The High School group has its own web page, available by clicking HERE. (Their 2008 activities are now shown on this page.)
Church School
The children attend the first 20 minutes of the Sunday Worship service (through the Children’s message) and are then excused to attend Church School. The children will study the same themes that Pastor Henry’s Sermons are covering. Click HERE for the Spring 2008 schedule.
Preschool Aged Children
These children are a part of the story and music at the beginning of our time together. They will then go to their own room “A” for activities.Kindergarten through Grade 5
“Interpreting the WORD” through art, music, cooking, crafts, computers & media is a multi–grade program. The bible story will be told in many ways each week with special guests. We will also be singing using our new song books. Then each child may choose one or more activity centers to do that further developed that Sunday’s story. The Presbyterian Children’s Mission Book is one of the many resources that the Children’s Church School Committee used to develop this unique program.Middle School
The Middle School Students have a special fellowship program that meets twice a month from 5 to 7 PM. The January – June 2008 schedule is available by clicking HERE. In addition they are invited to be part of Church School twice a month for chimes lessons. They will be taking part in worship several times this year.Two forms need to be completed and returned to the church for activities that take place away from church. These include the Fall retreat and Spring Camp out.
In Conclusion
Important aspects of our program include educating the children about the sacraments, stewardship and mission. Special events each year include 4th grade Bible Sunday, recycling to benefit Heifer, monthly food collections, making Advent Wreaths, the Children’s Musical and Vacation Church School in June 2008.
