Children's Ministries

First Lutheran DeKalb has a rich and growing array of social, spiritual, and educational programming for children and their families. Currently these include Sunday School, the Prime Time Wednesdays programs, and Vacation Bible School. Volunteers and visitors are always welcome. Contact Mary Jean Bauling for information or to offer assistance with these programs.

Sunday School

First Lutheran DeKalb offers a full array of highly creative Sunday School programing for children up through grade 6. For more information, see the Sunday School page. Sunday morning programs are also being planned for junior high, senior high, and college age youth. Junior high youth and above are also invited to attend the Adult Forum series.

Many parents of children attending Sunday School will also be interested in the Prime Time Wednesdays program (see below) and the Mothers Of Pre-Schoolers (MOPS) program (click here for description).

Prime Time Wednesdays

Prime Time Wednesdays is a unique mix of activities for children, youth, and adults that runs every Wednesday night from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. We begin with a group supper at 5:30. Activities begin at 6PM. We currently have activities for children ages 4 through 6th grade, with confirmation for grades 7 and 8. For more information, see our page on Prime Time Wednesdays.


Vacation Bible School

First Lutheran DeKalb runs a Vacation Bible School every summer. Each year's offering is organized around a different theme. For more information, or to offer assistance, please contact Mary Jean Bauling.
