Under the leadership of Children’s Ministries Director Missy Harrison, Christ Church offers an active, full program. Missy continues a years-long tradition of excellence in our Christian Education offerings.

The religious formation program we employ for young children is The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd. The Atrium is a specially prepared environment that seeks to assist the child's developing religious life. Specially designed materials that depict scripture and liturgy are available for the children to work with weekly.

Children join parents at the Peace for Eucharist and then return to the Atria during Church School hour.

Church School Curriculum:
Programs for children and young people use scripture and liturgy to allow for a growing understanding of our Episcopal faith and practice. Drama, music, field trips, and age-appropriate projects and activities, which serve to extend the learning process, are incorporated throughout the year. The curricula are often supplemented using a variety of resources since we often customize the year to fit the interests of both teacher and students. At all levels we incorporate outreach activities appropriate to age and skill level.
