Celebrating baptism in Open Door Sunday School

  • January 17, 2019
  • Sunday School

On Sunday, all children and youth, ages 3-18, experienced the story of the baptism of Jesus together with drama and interactive experiences in every single classroom. All doors were open on Sunday, meaning children of all ages were allowed to float between rooms, choosing from a wide variety of activities for all interests and abilities. Check out the pictures from our fantastic morning together!

  • Beginning with a drama, John the Baptist was busy baptizing lots of people in the Jordan River
  • Then along comes Jesus!
  • At Jesus’ insistence, John agrees to baptize him
  • Can you see the dove of the Holy Spirit?
  • The youth worked to create the River Jordan with blocks and stones
  • Much care was taken…
  • …to add lots of details…
  • …complete with fish and people
  • Wow!
  • Busy creating origami doves!
  • Watercoloring in the Prek room
  • Busy creating
  • We even worked to build a river on the floor. Need a pool for the fishes!
  • Water beads!
  • Fun to scoop and dump in the water
  • A very popular station!
  • Lego recreation of baptism in the youth room
  • Lots of building!
  • Child of God mirrors were decorated too!
  • Another very popular activity
  • We ended our time together by washing away our worries, our grievances, and things we are sorry for…
  • …by pouring water on the dissolving paper…
  • …and our sins and sorrows were washed away!
