Church Education
At Mount Olive, we are all disciples—followers of Jesus who, by his grace, are growing to be more like him. We do this by spending time with him in prayer and his Scripture as well as growing alongside other disciples in Christian community. There are a variety of opportunities to grow as disciples at Mount Olive.
Kids & Youth
We love families! Research proves that parents are the primary influence on their children’s faith. At Mount Olive, we want to partner with you in that role. Our Sunday School and Youth Bible Studies are designed to help build foundational spiritual habits and Biblical understanding that can continue in the family setting and help your child grow as a disciple.
Our Sunday School and Youth Bible Studies aim to
- Help kids grow in their faith and Biblical knowledge.
- Help kids grow as disciples by teaching and practicing spiritual habits.
- Help kids understand and experience the importance of a supportive Christian community.
Sunday School
Sundays 11:00-11:45am
Kids in Sunday School gather each week to grow in their relationship with God and each other through age-appropriate activities and Bible lessons. Kids participate in fun activities, crafts, service projects, and discussions that connect them back to what God is saying to them in his Word.
Sunday School is offered for two groups:
- Early Childhood | Pre-K (Age 4) & Kindergarten | Meet in the Pre-K Room
- Elementary | 1st Grade-5th Grade | Meet in the Library
Youth Bible Study
Sundays 11:00-11:45am
Participants in Youth Bible Study discuss Scripture and how its truths apply to their lives while growing their spiritual habits for studying the Bible through the Inductive Bible Study method. This method of studying Scripture allows students to discover what Scripture is saying to them through observation (what does it say?), interpretation (what does it mean?), and application (what does it mean for my life?). Students take a small section of Scripture each week and go through this process to help them understand what God wants to do in their lives. Participants also spend time each week sharing prayer requests and personally praying with and for each other.
Youth Bible Study is offered for two groups:
- Middle School | 6th-8th Grade | Meet in the Church Council Room
- High School | 9th-12th Grade | Meet in the Youth Room
