Christian Education, Programming, and Activities

Emmanuel Friedens offers Christian education in the forms of: adult Sunday school, children's Sunday school, youth group, and a vacation bible school that we call School of Wonder & Mystery.

Intergenerational events and activities are hosted quarterly, as well as family events throughout the year.


Adult Sunday School


September to June, 11:20–12:15 pm


Variety is the spice of life and that's what makes our adult sunday school so popular. These classes cover many topics led by staff, members and community leaders. Book discussions, current events, Bible study, spiritual practices and money topics are some of what's in store for this year. 

Children's Sunday School


Babyfold, Age 3 and Under

Open throughout Sunday service,  10:00-11:00

Pre-K to 5th Grade

Begins after Children's Story, 10:15-11:15

Youth Group


Youth group is open to youth in grades 6-12. The purpose is to engage our youth in building meaningful relationships with themselves, their peers, their church, their community and God. We aim to provide fun & fellowship with other youth their own age, opportunities for service in the community and church, and model and teach creative ways to listen, understand, dream, and act with God.

School of Wonder & Mystery

A uniquely creative alternative to cookie cutter Vacation Bible School—designed and presented by professionals from community churches.
