A few more details about our Sunday School in Essex… 

Let’s be honest, walking into somewhere new can feel intimidating. These quick answers will help you know exactly what to expect before attending a Church Service at Bread of Life Community Church in Clacton on Sea.

Sunday School is on during the main sermon. Therefore lessons can range from 45 minutes and an hour, dependent on the sermon length.

Our Sunday School is for any child, aged between 4-16 years old. We occasionally we have break out teaching sessions for the youth, 11-16 years old.

We teach the full counsel of God. Therefore, our teachings cover the whole Bible from Genesis to Revelation throughout the year. We focus on practical teaching, such as the armour of God, found in Ephesians and Jesus’ parables, found in the Gospels. We also teach on the Feasts of the Lord at the appropriate times of the year, such as: Passover, Shavout (Pentecost), Tabernacles, etc…

Absolutely! All families are warmly welcome at Bread of Life Community Church. If you could give us a heads up about attending, that would be wonderfully helpful for planning activities and ensuring we have enough supplies for our Sunday School team. Naturally it goes without saying, your children will leave with knowledge from the Bible. If you feel your child would enjoy this and would work in a conducive environment to Sunday School then we welcome them!

We have a safeguarding officer and all our teachers are DBS checked annually. You can feel at ease knowing your children will be well looked after during their time with us.

We welcome all children between the age range of 4-16 years old. It would be expected that your child would be toilet trained and be able to sit in our class listening to a short lesson.

As we learn through games and activities, participation in group exercises would be a great advantage but would still be voluntary.

If this may be a struggle we welcome the parent/guardian to sit with them in Sunday School.
