Parish Life

Sunday School

Classes for the children of the parish through the school year. Children worship with their families first, and go to class after Holy Communion.

Growing in the Orthodox Christian Faith

Sunday School supports parents in raising children in the life of the Orthodox Church. Through age-appropriate instruction using materials approved by the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, students grow in their knowledge of the Orthodox Faith and learn to live that Faith in their daily lives.

Christian formation extends beyond the classroom. Children worship with their families during the Divine Liturgy and, after receiving Holy Communion, are dismissed to their Sunday School classes for instruction.

Register for Sunday School

All children participating in Sunday School should be registered each school year. Registration helps our teachers prepare for their classes and ensures that the parish has current parent or guardian contact and other information needed to care for each child.

New to Nativity? Your children are welcome to attend with you. If you have questions about Sunday School or are not sure which class is appropriate for your child, please contact our Sunday School team.

The parish’s own form, on Google Forms. Questions about a class go through the parish office.

Our Sunday School Team

Where a name is given, it is the person the parish lists. No title is printed that the parish has not used itself.

Michael Euripides

Sunday School

The name the parish lists for Sunday School. Whether his title is Director has not been confirmed.

Hannah

Teacher · the younger children

Her surname is deliberately not printed, and which of the four classes she teaches is not confirmed.

The other classes

Content needed from the parish

Four classes are taught and one teacher is named. The rest are not listed, because a guess would put a parishioner's name against a class they do not teach.
