WHY SUNDAY SCHOOL?
Why is Sunday School important? Why do we encourage our children to attend? Why do we continue to participate in Sunday School? Because we always have……..
Isn’t it amazing that we should ever find ourselves having to defend the importance of Sunday School. After all, we can thank Sunday School for giving us pastors, missionaries, teachers; our churches are full of Christians strong in their faith and established in the scriptures. The real importance of Sunday School is one that has a dynamic ministry to every member of the family. It is a wonderful program that meets the needs of all family members as no other program in the church.
Here are some reasons why Sunday School is so important:
• Sunday School provides a basic study of the scriptures at a level of understanding that reaches every age group.
• Sunday School allows an opportunity for its members to talk and share their needs with others in similar life situations.
• Sunday School provides an opportunity for personal application of the scriptures based on the age level of the class.
• Sunday School provides for fellowship and a sense of belonging for each member of the class.
• Sunday School provides a platform for people to serve the Lord through teaching and administration.
• Sunday School is a training ground for young Christians to be more productive in their church and gives them the opportunity to develop their skills and talents for the Lord.
Take time to thank your Sunday School teacher for bringing you the Bible lesson each week. ABC teachers are the best!
