Children & Youth Formation Sunday School Each Week @ 9AM!

At St. Alban’s, we deeply value the participation of children within our community. They actively contribute as lectors, intercessors, ushers, and acolytes. Our approach to their development involves a diverse range of activities, from engaging in Bible studies that stimulate the intellect to exploring art, music, and movement to awaken the senses.

We understand the importance of tailoring education to individual needs, which is why we offer a flexible curriculum. Parents are encouraged to provide input regarding areas they believe their children should focus on, whether it’s biblical understanding, liturgical knowledge, or engagement in service projects.

Our Children’s Formation sessions take place every Sunday at 9:05 a.m. in the Church School room on the lower level. We welcome any child who is able to participate in short readings and arts & crafts activities. For further details about our current offerings for Children’s Formation, please reach out to Kedran Panageas at kedran.panageas@gmail.com.
