Sunday School
Sunday School, meeting at 9:30 am on Sundays, for 1st through 6th grades, provides a
loving, nurturing, age-appropriate environment that lays
the biblical foundation for faith in Christ and Godly
living.
Our teachers utilize teaching methods that address
the many different learning styles of children in order
to maximize their learning and enjoyment. Each grade
level department consists of a TEAM of teachers working
together to best serve your children.
Children grow in their faith through Bible Knowledge,
Prayer, Memory verses and developing the habit of doing
daily devotions (a time with God). Building healthy
relationships with their peers and family is emphasized
as well.
The 1st through 6th grade children may worship with their
parents at 11 am or they may participate in
Children’s Church.
New Believer’s Class for Children
Over the span of my 25 years as a school teacher, one
thing became painfully clear…the children passing
through my class room were obviously increasingly Bible
illiterates. Heaven forbid! How far we’ve strayed!
Couple this reflection with a confession made by a
parent just recently “Oh yes, we’re believers, but it’s
just too hard to get up and take the kids to church on
Sunday morning after a long, hard week”, and you realize
very quickly why so many children in our nation are
spiritually bankrupt! Make no mistake, we are reaping
what we’ve sown!
Here at Swift Creek Baptist Church, we believe our children are an
immeasurable, extraordinary resource given to us by God to further His kingdom.
Discipleship is not an option. We are to diligently raise our children in the
admonition of the Lord, “to meditate (chew on over and over) in it day and
night,….to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make
your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.” Joshua 1:8 Believing
this, we strive to lay a good foundation for those children who are “new babes”
in Christ. Each quarter a New Believer’s Class is offered for 1st through 3rd graders,
and 4th through 6th graders.
In this class, the children learn what it means “to
trust Christ” as their Savior and that we can have
assurance of our salvation. The basic tenets of our
faith such as baptism, the Lord’s Supper and “The
Church” are taught and thoroughly explained. Classes are
purposely kept small so that there’s time for individual
attention and questions.
Discipleship is an imperative command from our Lord –
not just for adults but for our children as well. Please
contact Becky Henry
@739-3001 extension 305, if you would like further information on this
class. And let’s anchor our children in the Word that
they may be “like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not
wither. What ever he does prospers.” Psalm 1:3

Children's
Church
Children’s Church, at 11 am on Sunday, serves our 1st
through 4th graders targeting the praise and worship
needs of our children while building a bridge for their
eventual graduation to the adult congregational worship.
During this hour and a half, the kids gain biblical knowledge and learn to apply
it to their lives through singing,
sharing, skits and relevant teaching.
5th
and 6th graders can join our leadership TEAM
called The “Kid's T.E.A.M.” They are an integral part of
Children’s Church, helping with set-up, running
equipment, leading the singing and monitoring the
classes. Click here
