Son City Grades 1-5
This class is led by volunteers. We rotate as one group through different lessons (1 per Sunday) involving art, drama, science, cooking, video, games, and missions while covering about 5 units for the year. This rotational model allows the kids to see how the Bible comes to life and gives kids the ability to move and be creative! Bible verses are memorized and offering is taken to support our church mission project for the year.

United Youth Middle School
United Youth M.S. is a program for 6th-8th graders. They meet one Sunday afternoon each month. They are spending their time teaching kids about how God is found in everyday lives. The kids are building relationships with other kids through many activities, and we are also doing local mission work. They will continue to find places that the kids can do God's work.
Over the summer, United Youth M.S. Fridays will meet for half a day of serving God with local service trips and the other half of the day for fun together as a group. Check back for dates.
Middle School Sunday School Grades 6-8
This class meets in the “rat pack alley” room and is led by volunteers.

These conversations are aided by the sharing of donuts, muffins, or the occasional breakfast pizza.
