Sunday Funday School
Esperanza’s Funday Sunday School is for EVERYONE who is interested! Kids, Youth and Adults. Each group will meet separately.
Children pre-K through fifth grade – Each Sunday at 10:15 a.m. we will gather in the upstairs great room to actively learn about our God. We will learn about how much God loves us and how we can love others. We will learn about our Earth and how we can care for God’s creation. Join us after worship for lessons, crafts, snacks and prayers.
This Fall Sunday Funday School we will be learning about the Parables of Jesus, and how Jesus led by serving others. Our Sunday Funday School youth will take what they will learn on Sunday mornings and put it into action by servicing God people. I look forward to a faith filled Sunday Funday School year! Thank you for sharing your amazing kids with us! See you upstairs! – Deacon Connie
Adult Sunday School – Sunday School for Adults meets at 10:30 a.m. until 11:00 a.m.

There is a “Pray-Ground” in the Esperanza Sanctuary
We welcome children of all ages in worship. Children are an integral part of the body of Christ, and we welcome them to worship with all of the sounds and movement that they bring with them.
Esperanza’s Pray-Ground is a wonderful option for families to experience worship together. Located in the northeastern corner of the sanctuary is an area designed for young children to quietly engage in age- appropriate activities. Please join us at our “Pray-Ground” on Sundays during regular service.
