Current Events - Christian Education

The Christian Education Board leads our religious education programs.

Here's our Sunday School Blog!

Religious Education for children:  Volunteer lay people lead our Sunday school classes. 
  • Sunday School takes place during the worship hour (worship starts at 10 AM during the school year). 
  • We have Sunday School during the school year, from September to May.
  • The younger children (pre-school through 5th grade) worship with the adults for part of each Sunday, and are invited to attend Sunday School together during the rest of the service.
  • We have an intentional intergenerational worship service on the first Sunday of the month. This is a service specifically designed with kids and adults together in mind. We also share communion.
  • The older children (middle school and high school) are invited to stay in worship through the whole service. 
  • We also offer Confirmation classes for students who are at least 8th graders and are interested in exploring their faith and learning more about what it means to be a member of our church. 

Special Events

Religious Education for Adults: We learn together through worship and service each Sunday during our worship services. Also, at various points during the year, we provide adult education classes. Currently, we have a book study led by one of our members. If you are interested in attending the book study group, please contact the church office (207-377-2063 or wccucc@fairpoint.net) to learn the dates and times of the class meetings. The current book study will run through Easter (April 5th).
