SABBATH SCHOOL

Welcome to Sabbath School where there is an interchange of ideas that is non-threatening and a sharing of faith and biblical instruction in a classroom setting. Friendships are made in the circle of fellowship; a sense of community is built up. Questions are asked and answered in an informal setting. Prayer, teamwork, and dedication are all extremely vital to our success.

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

2 Timothy 2:15

This ministry focuses on education in the Word of God and evangelism — to give true education, to prepare a people, young and old, to meet their returning Lord and Savior. Therefore, we can be found both in the church building and reaching out to the community as a means of sharing God’s word and His love. We are on a mission to win souls for God’s kingdom.

We also believe the youth should be involved in this process as a means of bringing them to and holding their interest in things of a Divine nature.. Hence, we welcome their hands for the work and their minds for the ministry. We pray that everything we do will have a positive influence on all who listen to the teaching of the Word of God and experience our services.

This is our aim, that lives would be transformed. We accomplish this through four areas of emphasis: faith, fellowship, community and worldview.
We invite you to join us for the best education of your life. We meet every Sabbath morning from 9:15 a.m. to 10:40 a.m. We have events coming up soon, so be sure to check here for more information.

Why Attend Sabbath School

My local church Sabbath school superintendent recently asked me to share with the congregation why Sabbath school is important. In preparing for that short talk, which primarily addressed adult Sabbath school, I asked others for their point of view. Although most told of ways Sabbath school is a blessing to them, some admitted that they seldom attend. So perhaps a brief reminder of a few of the benefits of Sabbath school will also be helpful to Review readers.

Sabbath school:

• builds faith through Bible study and helps unify members worldwide.
• provides fellowship with like-minded believers in a small-group environment.
• provides a “safe place” to express views and ask questions without fear of ridicule.
• has a consistent world mission focus and helps finance missions.
• reminds us that mission is also found in our own backyard. Class members often find it easier to reach out as small groups to the community as well as to inactive members.
• helps members gain insights into the Bible from others’ viewpoints and knowledge.
• helps us become more disciplined in personal Bible study.
• provides opportunities to discuss practical applications of Scripture.
• connects people with the source of true authority—the Bible.

James White wrote the first Sabbath school lessons in 1852, publishing the first four in the initial issue of the Youth’s Instructor that same year. The concept of Sabbath school grew from there. It seems it was the Lord who led White to begin this most effective method of teaching, likely because He knew His people would benefit from regular group Bible study as well as personal study.

So what about this week’s Sabbath school—will you be there?
