Sunday School on the First and Third Sundays of the Months During Term Time

Break

Venue
Brindle Community Hall - or in church - depending on availability of volunteering adults
Address
Brindle Community Hall - or in church - depending on availability of volunteering adults, Water Street, Brindle, PR6 8NH

On the first and third Sundays of each month (during term time) children are welcome to meet at the Brindle Community Hall. To help make sure that Sunday School runs smoothly could we kindly ask that all pre-school children be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the session. Parents and carers of older children join the 10.30am service. The children will walk to church with their leaders towards the end of the service.

Occasionally (when there is a special event in church or there are insufficient Sunday School leader volunteers) the Sunday School meet in the Cavendish Chapel at the far side of church. So, if the Brindle Community Hall door is locked, please bring your children to church by 10.30am.

The Sunday school is well attended. The older children expand topics to suit their more capable abilities and deeper understanding of the Christian faith. A number of our older Sunday school children have been confirmed and it is a pleasure to watch them take communion as part of their Sunday worship.

Throughout the year, Sunday School is during term time weeks only
