Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS)

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) is the children’s ministry of All Saints Sharon Chapel for children ages 18 months through 12 years old. CGS embraces Montessori methods of education in a religious setting and takes place in the atrium, a space set aside for the children learn and experience God. Trained atrium guides help facilitate each child’s learning. 

CGS News & Announcements

We believe that...

God and the child have a unique relationship with one another.

 

the growth of this relationship should be assisted by the adult, but is directed by the Spirit of God within the child.

 

children need their own place to foster the growth of the relationship.

​

the child’s spiritual growth is best served through tangible but indirect means.

Atrium Schedule

Children are welcome to come up to the Atrium at any time before regular services and will rejoin the main congregation in time for the beginning of worship. 

​

On the last Sunday of each month, the Atrium is closed to allow our catechists to connect for training and planning time. The main service is adjusted to ensure the music, prayers, and sermon are more accessible to children.​
