Kickoff Announcement:

Do you have children? Or know families who do? Well spread the word around, Sunday School is here! This January 29, 2012, Greenpoint Reformed Church is proud to offer its first ever expansive youth program. Whether your children have never been to church or have been going for years, you are welcomed with open arms to our youth program. Our mission is to develop an environment of love and compassion through biblical tradition, both old and new, by having fun and engaging activities suited for children of all ages.

This will be a uniquely wonderful experience that children will be able to carry with them throughout their lives, providing a positive understanding of both religion and the church. Lessons will take place in the basement of Greenpoint every Sunday at 11:00am, which has been vastly renovated to foster an atmosphere of learning, along with a fully developed curriculum and safe-sanctuary policy!

If you have children, know of children in the neighborhood who might be interested, want to teach, or simply would like more information on our program, please contact Rix Thorsell at rix@greenpointchurch.org.
