SUMMARY:Godly Play and Nursery Care
DESCRIPTION:Godly Play is both a worship and educational experience\, based on a multi-sensory telling of a Bible story\, a time for “wondering” about how the story connects God with our own lives. We invite children 4 and older through 3rd grade to join Ms. Julia in room 200 on the second floor following the Children’s Time in worship for a Godly Play story each week. Nursery care is also offered on the 2nd floor of First United Methodist Church of Kalamazoo for infants through 3-year-olds with fully vaccinated staff. Please contact jlibrizzi@umc-kzo.org with any questions.

SUMMARY:Sunday Morning Class: Grace and Gratitude
DESCRIPTION:This fall’s Stewardship campaign focuses on grace and gratitude and is based on John 1:16. This new class series is designed to look more closely at the role grace and gratitude play in the life of a Christian. Carol Hodges will lead the class\, but there will be several other presenters including Jennifer Clark\, Michel Pierce\, John Boley and Jan Schoenherr. Each week\, we will hear the hymn Amazing Grace sung by various individuals and groups. The class will be offered in person in the Parlor and also online on Zoom. \nThis week’s class\, led by Jennifer Clark\, will focus on the way three poets view gratitude. Each week the class will start with a rendition of Amazing Grace. This week it will be sung by Jack Hopkins\, a member of the Chancel Singers. \nClick here to access the Zoom link and join the class online on Sunday\, September 18 after worship.

SUMMARY:Anakephalaiosasthai
DESCRIPTION:Anakephalaiosasthai is a really wonderful Greek word that our Sunday School class came across in our book\, Manna and Mercy. It is found in the book of Ephesians and it means that God is gathering all things into God’s Self\, uniting all\, bringing all together\, creating harmony. Anakephalaiosasthai meets every Sunday after worship (during the Sunday school calendar year) in the Youth Center downstairs at FUMC Kalamazoo. We’ll eat donuts\, hang out and learn the Bible through the Manna and Mercy curriculum. Anakephalaiosasthai is open to 6th-12th graders. Please contact Pastor Matt Weiler with any questions at mweiler@umc-kzo.org.

SUMMARY:Sunday School
DESCRIPTION:Sunday School for 4-year-olds through 5th grade takes place most Sundays after worship (during the school year) from 11:15am to 12:15pm in room 203 on the second floor of FUMC Kalamazoo. Lessons feature a curriculum called\, “Celebrate Wonder” that engages children’s natural sense of curiosity to help them understand God’s love. It creates a safe environment for kids to ask big questions—helping children explore the Bible in ways that feed their imagination and encourage creativity. Parents are welcome to have coffee and fellowship in The Arches on the 2nd floor during Sunday school. Please contact jlibrizzi@umc-kzo.org with any questions.
