Children and Youth
Children's Christian Formation The main component of our Christian education for children is Godly Play, a curriculum in which children ages 3-11 are encouraged to deepen their relationship with God, God's people and their faith community through hearing and reflecting upon the stories of God and our traditions. Sessions are offered each Sunday immediately following the 10am service. Two or three storytellers and shepherds (assistants) are needed for each level. Click here to learn more about Godly Play.
Youth When children are baptised in our church we promise to do all in our power to support them in their lives as Christians. Christian formation for youth (6th – 12th grade) at Good Shepherd is centered around experiences in worship, education and service. Click here for more information about our Youth programs.
