This week in Sunday school

Sunday, February 23rd

One of the biggest commonalities across Christian traditions is the prayer that Jesus taught his disciples to say - but it’s not always very clear what it means! For the next few weeks, we’re going to be exploring different parts of the Lord’s Prayer, and creating a major art piece for the church about it.

This week, we’ll be getting into the middle of the Lord’s Prayer: Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.

On the second and fourth Sundays of each month, Sunday School will be in person at St. Matthias’. We’re conscious of the need to maintain cleanliness and good ventilation, and we’re asking our families to do their part, too! We encourage anyone with a fever to stay home, and runny noses will be required to wear masks. We have our own pediatric masks available for anyone who develops a need during Sunday School, too. For more information about our in-person plan, drop us a line!

This semester, we’re spending time with the mysteries of the Church, exploring rituals, objects, ceremonies, and more. As we follow the liturgical calendar, we’ll discover the ways that the different seasons of our life as a community teach us lessons we can use in our whole lives. And, during the big season of Lent, we’ll dive into the Lord’s Prayer to unpack the way Jesus taught us to pray.

We’re also looking for volunteers to come and spend time with the Sunday School so that Janet and Jessica can take alternate Sundays off. If you’re interested in being part of our little community, please get in touch with Fr. Patrick.

This week, we tackled the first few lines: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come.

This week, we’ll be continuing through the middle of the prayer: Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation.
