Children

At The American Church in London we believe that faith is a lifelong journey. As our children are beginning that journey, we seek to be a place where they know they are loved, a place they enjoy, and where they can learn about God’s love through Jesus Christ.

To help them along this path we provide a range of nurturing experiences on Sunday mornings. For children aged 3-8 we use a curriculum called Children and Worship. This is a hands-on, sensorimotor approach to Biblical storytelling that invites young people to participate in various stories from the Bible. The kids are encouraged to respond in a variety of ways that reflect their learning styles and gifts. To learn more about the program, please visit www.childrenandworship.org.

Older children (8-12) participate in a drama club on Sunday mornings where they learn Bible stories and Christian principles through skits and short plays. In this class the kids make their own costumes, create set decorations, and in the process grow in their faith and understanding of who Jesus is.

Members of the congregation who serve on the Children’s Committee are on a teaching rotation that puts them in the classroom once or twice each month. To ensure safety, each volunteer submits to a background check in order to work with children – and they always teach in pairs.
