Sunday School - Report
1. The Sunday School teachers were given a blessed opportunity to
attend Teachers Training at India Sunday School Union Campus in
Coonnor, on the 13th and 14th of July, 2019. The training was conducted
by Dr. Ajith Prasadam, the General Secretary at ISSU. He laid emphasis
on how we must ensure that our children get sensitized to 'GOD's Spirit,
Habitual Presence' in their life. We were taught how to use the 'Lectio
Divine' method of teaching
Teachers were sensitized that children love to learn but hate to study. New
methods of teaching that will involve the children to 'Engage, Play and
Imagine', were suggested.
The teachers were taken through the 9 stages of 'Child Development by
Erik Homburger Erikson', by the able instructor Ms. Allam Jamier, which
would enable the teachers to customize the learning as per the age group
they all teach.
They also had a focused detailed session dealing with issues faced by
Young Adults.
The teachers also had the opportunity to attend the Sunday Morning
Service at ISSU Chapel and have fellowship with the congregation. They
have come back motivated and responsible about the task entrusted to
each one of us to lead these children in His teachings and mercies.
Thanks to our Presbyter Rev. Dr. Dexter Maben and the Pastorate
Committee for their encouragement and continuous support. Thank you
teachers, who made it possible, their families for supporting them, the
teachers and the congregation members who took care of the Sunday
School in our absence.
2. The Pep-talks we started has been continuously inspiring our young
adults. Thanks to Mr. Asir Richardson, Mr. Joshi Mark, Mr. Sailesh Watsa
and Maj. Valentina Christy (Retd) for sharing their walk with Christ in their
careers.
3. 14 of our children participated in the Memory Verse Contest organized
by the CSI-KCD Civil Area Council. Results are eagerly awaited
4. Children have participated in the State Bible Exam on July 28th
5. A Quiz and Singing Talent Hunt was conducted for our children in our
church on June 30th and 28th July, to start showcasing the talents of our
children for the greater glory of God.
Thanks and warm regards
