First United Methodist Church of The Colony

Children's Christian Living

What used to be called "Sunday School" is called Christian Living at First Church. Why? Because that time has always been about one thing: learning to connect Christian living every day in every way!

Our goal is to provide all students with a caring Christian environment by promoting their spiritual, physical, and emotional well-being in accordance with God's love, grace, and will.

Our vision is comprised of five elements that are important to the growth of young Christians:

1. Discipleship
2. Mission
3. Worship
4. Evangelism
5. Fellowship

We strive to make this a ministry "with children" rather than "for children". This is a community of unconditional love and acceptance!
