Christian Education at Zion
Church School for Children
A joyful noise emanates from our Church School as our very active children enjoy learning about Jesus and his family and friends with the help of their teachers and aides. Classes are divided by age with the appropriate level of instruction and material and are held during the first part of the Sunday service. Children continue to learn as they join their families and the rest of the congregation at the Peace to share in the Eucharist. There are Pre-K through 5th. grade classes.
Check the latest issue of Crossroads for all the interesting things our children are up to.
Journey to Adulthood
Journey to Adulthood is our program of development for our youth. These young people are charged with the responsibility to use wisely the creative gifts given them by God. They enjoy fun and camaraderie as well as opportunities to mature in their faith.The congregation, their parents, teachers, and peers strive to do all in their power to stand beside them, pray for them, and support them in this journey. This is a six year program for each group. We currently have two active JTA groups at Zion. We have had four JTA groups already complete their Journeys
Church School for Grown-ups
A chance to explore spiritual issues in an informal setting is offered for adults on occasional Sunday mornings at 9:00 a.m. (between services) Topics to explore are suggested by parishioners and are covered in a short series of sessions (from 1-6 weeks in length.) A light breakfast and child care are provided. A summer book group affords parishioners an opportunity to enjoy each others company and to share ideas in a less formal setting.
 The Nursery on Notch Hill
The Nursery on Notch Hill is owned and operated by the Church and has programs for children ages 3, 4 and a Pre-K class. It is a parent-cooperative nursery school. The school has been in existence for 35 years. It has sessions on M/W/F and T/Th in the AM and follows the North Branford school schedule. The School is located beneath the Parish Hall (separate entrance from the parking lot). Please come for a visit and check the latest issue of Crossroads for their current activities.
