Sunday School
The Sunday School Department is the primary teaching ministry of the church and one of the foundations of Christian discipleship in Assemblies of God Nigeria. Every Sunday before the main worship service, members are grouped into age-appropriate classes where they study the Scriptures using the official Sunday School lesson guide. The department exists to lead people to Christ, establish believers in sound biblical doctrine, and equip them for Christian service. From children to adults, every member is encouraged to participate as they grow in biblical knowledge, spiritual maturity, and practical Christian living.
WHY DO WE HAVE SUNDAY SCHOOL?
The Purpose of the Assemblies of God Sunday School is to provide the church with a teaching ministry to reach, teach, and win the individual to Christ and to mature, and train him for Christian service.
Reach: This refers to the Sunday School outreach activities which involves making contact with those outside the church for the purpose of sharing Christ with them and inviting them to attend Sunday School.
Teach: Teaching must of necessity take place before a person responds to Christ. The teaching duration can be a few minutes or several days.
Win: Leading the pupils to personal encounter with Christ is the utmost purpose of evangelism in the Sunday School. It is also the beginning of educational process
Mature: Our goal for every person in our Sunday School is maturity in Christ as is stated by Paul in Ephesians 4:13; “Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.”
Training: Our utmost goal in maturing pupils in Christ is for them to become involved in one form of service or the other. Until this is achieved, our task in Sunday School work is not yet complete.
