KIDS CONNECTION
SUNDAY SCHOOL

Kids Connection Sunday School is for children age 3 (fully toilet trained) through grade 6. Join us for children’s lessons, games, hands-on activities, music, fun, and more! Divine Redeemer uses the ShareFaith Curriculum, which covers the Old and New Testament over multiple years. Students get a thorough understanding of the authority and primary teachings of Scripture, while learning to apply God’s Word in their everyday lives. ShareFaith brings the Bible to life with animated Bible videos, games, and a take home lesson sheet for an online family devotional. Please join us on this exciting journey!

​

The cost of the 6th grade Kids Connection book is $26 per student. The book will also be used in 7th grade confirmation, so families will not be charged for it in 7th if they keep it.

DETAILS

Children will begin their Kids Connection time in worship with their families, during the 9:15am Contemporary Service. Once dismissed, they move to a classroom with their age group and teacher for the remainder of the hour. Parents are encouraged to personally pick up their children at their classrooms.

Your child should be 3 by September 1st to start Kids Connection in the fall. If your young child is not potty-trained, please communicate this with the director in advance. If your child has allergies, special needs, or would benefit from classroom modifications; please speak with the director. It is important to Divine Redeemer that all children feel welcome and experience the love and forgiveness of Jesus!

​

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Adults, you can help in many ways! Volunteers help connect kids with God and his Word by teaching (regularly or as a substitute), preparing materials, and praying for this ministry. Contact Kids Connection or call 262-367-8400 to find out how you can assist in this important endeavor. Please note that the curriculum provides all the resources you need to teach, and most teachers report that they need about 30 minutes to an hour to prepare for a weekly lesson.

CONFIRMATION

7th & 8th Grade Confirmation

 

“Whoever acknowledges Me before men,

I will also acknowledge him before My Father in heaven. But whoever disowns Me before men, I will disown him before My Father in heaven.” - Jesus Christ

~ Matthew 10:32-33

​

Confirmation at Divine Redeemer

​

Confirmation is a spiritual milestone in a child’s life and one that we at Divine Redeemer take very seriously.

​

“Confirmation provides an opportunity for the individual Christian, relying on God’s promise given in Holy Baptism, to make a personal public confession of faith and a lifelong pledge of fidelity to Christ.” -Luther's Small Catechism

8th Grade Confirmation

The 8th grade confirmation instructional process is designed after much study, listening, research, and improving the desired outcomes of previous confirmation classes. This instructional "class" is an on-line instruction for both the parent and the 8th grade confirmand beginning in September. This online course is module based and the portal access will be flexible and based on your time, your schedule, and 24/7, anywhere you have internet access. Each module will be open for an adequate timeframe for the parent and child to complete that module. There are 23 total modules and they will be opened on a set schedule and closed after 2 weeks. We believe it begins at home but with intentional instruction from our staff and pastors.

​

7th Grade Confirmation

The 7th grade program is based on Concordia’s Bible History and covers the New Testament. Our Youth Director, Ann Marie Hahn, will meet with students for the first 45 minutes of class and then the students will break out into small group study with a leader for the remaining 45 minutes. The 7th grade program begins in September, at 9:15am, in the Science Classroom in the lower level of the school.

 

The 7th grade program directly complements and leads into the online study program for the 8th grade student. It better prepares our students to be active members of a congregation and grows their faith in our Lord and Savior for a life-long relationship.

 

In addition, we are in need of a few parents to help fill the small group leadership role. Please pray about and consider joining those who have already stepped up with a passion for growing the faith of our Divine Redeemer students. Contact Ann Marie Hahn if you are interested. 262-367-8400 ext.103 or annmarie.hahn@drlc.org.
