Rally Day & ‘God’s work. Our hands.’ Sunday

September 7, 2025

Rally Day is an important day of the year; as traditions remain strong, it is the start of Sunday School for all ages.  Youth Sunday School classes have a fun filled first day!  We have classes for our Preschool – 5th Graders; Confirmation class for 6th – 8th grade, and we have some new and exciting Sunday activities for our High School youth!  Some of our adult Sunday School classes take a break during the summer months, while others continue through the summer, but everyone’s ready to get into a new fall routine!  Learn more about our Sunday School classes.

Coincidentally, Rally Day is also ‘God’s work. Our hands.’ Sunday in the ELCA.  God’s work. Our hands. Sunday is a significant date in the church, as it is a unified day of service across the nation.  Churches all over America participate in community service projects.
