Introduction

The Christian Education organization of our Parish for Children is Immanuel Mar Thoma Sunday School registered under the Mar Thoma Sunday School Samajam, Thiruvalla. It is the responsibility of the Church to raise and train children in the faith and practices of the Church. Therefore, Christian Education is the intentional activity of the Church. Parents and Sunday School teachers have a greater role in the edification of children according to the pattern of Christian love. Mar Thoma Sunday School Samajam had successfully used an earlier curriculum, "Being God's People in God's World" for 21 years. The overarching theme of the new curriculum is "Transformation through the Word of God".

 

Time Schedule: 9.00 am- 11:00 am every Friday at Mar Thoma Centre

Medium of Instruction:     English    

Classes:
