Sunday School
10:00-10:50 AM

Students in 7th-12th grades will gather together in Room 201 for the first few minutes of the Sunday School Hour. From there, we split into three groups, 7th & 8th Grades, and 9th & 10th, and also 11th-12th grades to read and discuss scripture in community.

Sunday School is between the Traditional and Contemporary services, so it’s perfectly timed for whichever service you attend. If it’s your first time joining us, it’s a good opportunity to meet the youth team and be introduced to people who are in your grade.

Contact Kristen Tropeano if you have questions.

All Student Sunday School classes will start together in Room 201 before breaking-out into separate classrooms.

 

 


Although separate from our Student Ministry, we are thrilled to offer our newest Sunday School Class at Strawbridge UMC - The Waymakers - that furthers our commitment to be inclusive and accepting of everyone! This class will "make ways" to be a flexible and fun learning environment for people of all abilities and neurodiversity to be able to focus on learning more about God, making new friends, and assisting with some of the missions of the church.

The age range of this class is 11 years old through recent high school graduates. You can find The Waymakers in Room 101 during the Sunday School hour (10:00 - 11:00 am).

Please contact Pastor Tiffani Whitaker for any further information.

Class Leader: Christine Biddle

Youth Fellowship
Sundays 5:00-7:00 PM in the REC Center

Youth Fellowship is our weekly gathering where life and faith collide, as we seek to connect with God and one another. Each month, we will examine a different topic that affects our lives though fellowship, games, worship, and devotion. A typical evening of youth fellowship begins with youth led worship and devotion, followed by a game or activity and finishing up with snack supper.

All youth (7th-12th grade) are welcome and youth fellowship is a great place to bring friends as it is a relaxed atmosphere. We ask that you bring $3 for snack supper (except in the summer, or if it is your first time). If you have any questions please contact Kristen Tropeano.
