Sunday School
In-Person Classes
Children Pre-K (age 3) - Grade 3 are invited to a morning of fun! Join us Sunday mornings at 10:30 A.M. for music, crafts, and outdoor fun (weather permitting). Meet in Classroom 3-4. No pre-registration is required. Emergency contact information will be collected on Sundays when children arrive. Both children and adults will wear masks while indoors, and are recommended for outdoors. HOP COVID-19 precautions will be followed. Parents are welcome to stay to join the fun or enjoy coffee and donut fellowship in the Narthex. Class will be finished by 10:55 A.M. for those wishing to attend ReFuel Worship.
Faith Together at Home
We recognize that families have a huge impact on children’s faith, so we want to provide resources, ideas, and encouragement as you practice your faith together. Click the links below to download the PDFs of family-friendly activities to do together. Each theme includes a Bible verse, discussion questions, family activity, and closing prayer. We hope you will share pictures of your crafts and activities with us!
Questions about Sunday School and the Faith Together at Home resources can be directed to Kristi Liu (kline010@umn.edu) or Andry Jurcich (andryj@invisik.com).
Children's Music
House of Prayer has hired a Director of Liturgical Worship (Roselyn Hanson Weber) who may also be leading Children’s music opportunities The goal is to continue a brief music experience on Sunday morning during Sunday School where kids experience music that gets them moving, reinforces the lessons, and gives them a chance to explore their talents. Throughout the year they'll have the opportunity to share those talents as they lead us in worship with their songs. Music also plays a big role in the Christmas Program each December.
Vacation Bible School (VBS) & Summer Stretch
Every year, House of Prayer and Woodlake combine to offer an evening Vacation Bible School for kids from K-5th grade, and an afternoon program for 6th grade and up (Summer Stretch), giving kids an opportunity to learn about themselves, their relationship with Jesus, and develop new relationships with other kids and church leaders. A meal is offered to both groups at 5pm, which is just after Summer Stretch, and just before VBS. Staff from Luther Park Camp come to help out with the programs, and the kids really have a good time (as you can see from the pictures). We welcome every child to these programs, whether they attend church at HOP, Woodlake, somewhere else, or not at all! If you have a child that falls into these age groups, we encourage you to enroll for 2024!
