Links for our Sunday School Ministry Team

Picture
This is page is for  our Sunday School teachers.  It has links to teacher tools to help us better nurture our students and teach scripture.  These are also great 
links for parents.

United Methodist Sacraments

The button and two links below will give you access to the  global  board   of  United Methodist  websites.  The United Methodist Church recognizes  two sacraments, baptism and communion. These two acts have a special place in the church because Jesus commanded them and participated in them.

Through the years, Christians have used other sacramental acts to draw closer to God. While we do not recognize these others as sacraments, we participate in many of them in some way.
The   articles at this link  explore how United Methodists understand  baptism, communion, and  rites    and rituals other Christian churches view as sacraments.
