Location: Covington Room
On Sunday, September 7th The Rev. Tom Fanning and Becky Herren will begin hosting a Newcomers’ Class in the Covington Room on the first floor of the education building during Sunday School between 9:30 am and 10:15 am. We will be reading the book The Gifts of God Gifts of God for the People of God: Exploring Worship in the Episcopal Church, by Furman Buchanan. This class is a great way for someone who is feeling a sense of belonging in the Episcopal Church to dig deeper into what is actually going on during our worship and beyond.
If you are new to the Episcopal Church, we hope to see you in the Newcomers’ Class.

Why go to church?
With Ian Markham’s book, Liturgical Life Principles: How Episcopal Worship Can Lead to Healthy and Authentic Living as our guide, Will’s Sunday school will make their way through our Sunday worship service and discuss how our liturgy gives us what we need to weather life’s storms and makes us healthier and happier; that going to church truly is one of the best things we can do for our family and for ourselves.

Location: Youth Room
Our EYC curriculum this fall will be the High School Talksheets series by David Rogers. Each Talksheet provides a springboard for discussion. The weekly lesson opens with group questions and offers various Bible verses or stories to assist in leading the discussion. No homework is ever required for this class! Students have enough on their plates, and we want this to be a space for learning without pressure.
Depending upon the numbers and size of the class, we are hoping to have a group opening and then break off into a Junior High and Senior High discussion area. Davis and Martha Frye and Boudreaux Dulske will be leading these breakout groups and adjusting the topics for more age-appropriate inclusion.
We try to always have donuts and a very relaxed atmosphere in the Youth wing! We’re very excited to get started on September 7th!
Location: Education Building
At Chapel of the Cross, we use the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, a beautiful and intentional curriculum that provides religious education and spiritual formation for children ages 3 through 6th grade. Catechesis is rooted in the Bible, the liturgy of the church, and the educational principles of Maria Montessori. Children gather in atriums, divided by age, on the ground floor of the Education Building and work with prepared materials to learn about God and strengthen their spiritual relationships, all facilitated by highly-trained Catechists (a.k.a. teachers). Our Catechesis atriums are joyful places filled with activity, singing, discussion, and prayer, and we invite interested parents to stop by any time. Sunday School begins at 9:30 am.
