Christ Church uses the Rotation Method for our Sunday school children. We have learned that children do not learn to read, write, or tell time by listening to their teacher for an hour. The Rotation Model teaches one Bible story per four week cycle. Each grade visits a different room or "station" during the cycle, experiencing the same story in a different learning style through art and crafts, drama, video, music, cooking, gardening, games/puzzles, history, science and story. The story is repeated each week, so missing one week does not mean missing out on the whole lesson. If there is a fifth week - that is a family worship Sunday.
Our Sunday school children are divided into four age groups. 3-5 yr
olds, K – 1st, 2nd – 3rd and 4th & 5th graders. (We also have
childcare available for toddlers (room 7) and a nursery (room 6) for our babies). Please bring your child into the sanctuary at 10:30AM.
Our children enjoy the first 10 minutes of each service and then are called forward to listen to a quick story at Children's Moment. They are then released by age groups to their shepherds, who walk them over to the Sunday school classrooms.
(At the 9:00 a.m.service, the children will be released to the adult
responsible for Children's Church. The children will go to room 15
and experience Church for children, using stories, scriptures and
music.)
WHEN CHILDREN WORSHIP GOD, AMAZING THINGS HAPPEN!!!!
We hope you are having a fun and safe summer.
Sunday Funday is a great time, for ages 0 -99! We share a potluck lunch and the children play games and we usually have a 'senior' movie or activity for our older adults to enjoy.
Children's Church is still going strong at our 9:00AM service, with Sunday school starting at 10:30AM for grades K-5. We have a preschool room for ages 3-4, and a nursery available for both services.
Great things are happening at Christ Church. Please check us out!!!!

Kid's Club
Kids' Club is for all children in kindergarten through 5th grade.
Kids' Club is designed for children to build community and relationships in an accepting and safe environment. Respect, kindness, caring, giving, thoughtfulness, inclusion, friendship and fun are modeled during activities.
Most ideas for our monthly meetings/activities are generated by the children reflecting their interests. We have hiked, bowled, gardened, cooked, painted.
We have had trips to Breakers Water Park, a horse stable, Tucson Museum of Art and more. We have at least one mission project a year which the children choose. Children may volunteer to lead devotion and prayers.
Visitors and friends are always welcome.
