The Fishbowl Youth Sunday School Join us each Sunday this school year in the youth area for a lively morning of worship, praise, and discussion. We begin our experience in separate “schools” (5th-6th: Room 122; 7th-8th: Room 120; 9th-12th: Room 121) for an age appropriate breakdown of the weekly theme. This will take place from 10:10 AM – 10:45 AM. Clips from television, movies, poems, and songs help us apply the message to our daily lives. We then conclude in The Fishbowl (Room 121) with song, prayer, and Scripture as a larger community.
