WHAT ABOUT
OUR CHILDREN?

Christian education has changed dramatically over past generations. We have reinvented our classes to engage our youth. See our innovative programs below.

We welcome your questions! Please call the church office at  631-754-4422 or e-mail the Ministry Coordinator by clicking here for information. 


  • THE PORT THE PLACE FOR ALL OF OUR YOUTH PROGRAms

    Our programs are based on stories. Are they old stories? Yes! But they're important ones.

    Life is kind of like a string of stories  - - with each of us creating our own unique ones. We hope these stories enhance a good day, make bearable a tough day and help bring peace and calm to every day.

    You are welcome to join us without any commitment by simply coming to a class at its offered time.

  • jump in | Sunday School

    This program is for children ages 3 (potty-trained) through 4th grade. All ages meet together. Different people guide the stories throughout the year. When the story changes, the setting changes. There's a game or craft every week. There are voices singing and instruments playing!

    FIFTH GRADE STUDENTS attend Jump in for the fall and transition into Sail classes in the spring to prepare for First Communion Classes.

  • Navigate | Confirmation

    Here at St. Paul’s, Confirmation (also known as Affirmation of Baptism) is a three-year program for

    students in 6-8th grades. It is a time when young people declare for themselves that they will live out the

    promises made for them by their parents at their baptism. During these years, our young people study both the old and new testament, as well as Lutheran doctrine. Through lessons, and most importantly

    discussion, we seek for our youth to discover value and purpose in their own lives as intended by God,

    and revealed in scripture.
