Christ gave us the command "Teach them to observe all things." We are laying great stress upon our Sunday School, Saturday Catechism and Vacation Bible School. In these we try to give to all our children at least the basic fundamentals of the Christian faith. We sincerely wish that all parents realize their Christian duty to bring their children regularly to any and all of these opportunities for learning and indeed set a good example by attending Adult Bible Class themselves. May God bless the teachers and scholars.

    When the Sunday school was first organized the pastor had complete charge of our Christian education and was the only teacher. In later years Grace Marienau was selected as superintendent and Willis Harms as her assistant. Additional teachers were also chosen to help. In 1952 Lucille Plueger was elected superintendent by vote of the congregation, holding office until 1959 when the following dedicated people were chosen by the church for this important position.

Elmer Wilken has been for many years the Sunday School Secretary-Treasurer.  A few notable events in recent years were as follows:

     1954  -   Began to use attendance pins
     1962  -  Purchased new ALC Sunday School Hymnals
     1965  -  Started using the new 3-year catechism material
     Present enrollment, not counting adult classes is 85.
