Faith Formation

Study Groups

We have an Adult Bible Study Group.  Everyone is most welcome. You do not need to have a knowledge of scripture, just a desire to learn, ask question, laugh, play and sing! Come for a week when you can, or join us every week as we learn together.

For more information, contact the church office at office@edenunitedchurch.com

Children

In January, 2013, we introduced a new curriculum in Sunday School – Godly Play.  Godly Play is based in the Montessori-style of teaching and holds at its foundation the belief that children are spiritual already, but like many adults, do not have the language to speak about their faith. Godly Play encourages children to engage with our Christian stories of faith where they are at in their own lives.  Godly Play encourages children to ponder how the stories of our faith touch their lives and where they might be in the story. 

Those who lead Godly Play also feel their own faith deeply nourished in the teaching of it, but also in hearing the children’s insights and responses.  It is a wonderfully rewarding ministry.

For more information about Godly Play, please go to the website: www.godlyplay.ca

About once a month the children are led in music by one of our Sunday School leaders.  They teach the children a song that they then sing at the end of the worship service as the sung blessing.  Our goal is to give our children a repertoire of music that will also deepen their faith.

If you would like more information about our Sunday School, contact the office at office@edenunitedchurch.com or call us at 905-824-5578.

Vacation Bible School

Vacation Bible School (VBS) takes place one week in the summer. It gives children ages 5 to 12 years old an opportunity to hear about God and explore their faith through a specific theme. While VBS happens in the summer there are various preparations that take place throughout the year to help make sure the program is a success. This allows for multiple ways to volunteer to help support the program.
