Introduction: Planting Seeds of Faith Early At ECHG

We believe that Sunday School is more than a program—it’s a foundation for lifelong faith. As the Sunday School Minister, I’m blessed to witness how God’s Word starts transforming young hearts from the earliest age. Proverbs tells us: “Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it” (Proverbs 22:6) Buzzsprout . This promise shows how early spiritual teaching lays a foundation that endures for generations.

Why Sunday School Matters for Spiritual Growth

Roots of Faith Are Grown Early Children absorb lessons in ways adults often forget. Sunday School invites them into God’s story through stories, songs, and bible-based activities, making learning engaging and relatable.

Understanding Bible Truths Through Everyday Life Sunday School doesn’t just explain Scripture—it brings it home. It helps children connect biblical truths to their daily lives, guiding them to choose wisely and walk humbly ResearchGate .

Preparation for a Life of Discipleship This sacred space nurtures future church leaders, worshipers, and compassionate community members. It’s where seeds of discipleship are planted and nurtured for lifelong fruitfulness ResearchGate .

Scriptural Encouragements for Parents

Ephesians 6:1–4 reminds us of God’s design for family discipleship: “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. … Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.” Buzzsprout

Children obeying parents sets a tone of learning and respect for authority rooted in God’s Word.

Parents nurturing in the Lord’s ways reflects active discipleship—Sunday School complements and strengthens this spiritual training.

A Call to Parents: Join the Journey

Dear parents, your involvement matters. Bring your children to Sunday School not only for their spiritual growth, but as your act of faith in God’s promise to guide and stay with them. Your support reinforces what they learn, and encourages their hearts toward Christ.

Conclusion & Scripture Charge

Let’s walk this journey together—teachers, parents, and children. As Deuteronomy 6:6-7 urges, “These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them… when you sit at home and when you walk along the road…” (NIV).

At ECHG, Sunday School is where this sacred conversation begins, planting seeds of faith that flourish into lifelong devotion.
