4th-graders Receive Bibles
On a Sunday in April, during worship, the Fourth Grade Sunday School Students are presented with engraved Bibles from the Church. These Bibles are given with the belief that reading the Bible provides an opportunity for individual reflection on the beauty and complexity of God's love. The NRSV Youth Bible is very reader friendly with introductions to each book, highlights and information about verses, people and places of the Bible.
Sunday School Classes
During the 2009/2010 Sunday school year the Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade students were offered a Sunday school experience that was planned in coordination with the worship themes developed by our Pastors, Susan Boyer and Janet Ober.

At the La Verne Church of the Brethren our Children and Youth are a vital part of worship and the community as a whole.
