Christian Education
Director: Marc Smithers

As Christians, we believe that the Bible is God’s Word offered for our guidance and direction.  It is important that we regularly study the Bible, thus the Akron First United Methodist Church offers a variety of classes and programs for Christian Education.
 
We have Sunday school for all ages Pre-K through adult on Sunday mornings from 9:30 - 10:20 am.  We also run various adult classes on other nights during the week depending on the season.  We have a program during the worship service called Time Together.  Time Together is a program that allows children ages 3 through grade 3 to leave the sanctuary during the second half of the worship service and have a lesson and activity geared toward their levels and interests.  Sunday school also sponsors various special events throughout the calendar year, such as a bowling party, movie nights, a sledding party, Christmas play and an end of the year family picnic.

Vacation Bible School
During the summer, Vacation Bible School is an exciting time for children to learn in fun and adventurous ways.  VBS is usually held in July with the entire church buzzing with excitement and fun.


Church Nursery
Nursery Attendant: Michelle Murray

Each Sunday during worship services our Nursery is staffed with a certified child-care provider along with assistants.  Our Church Nursery provides lessons and activities including snacks and crafts each week.  We believe that the nursery is not a place for babysitting but where children can learn of God’s love from the youngest ages.
