Sunday School
Sunday school is the time where we come together with our friends and family to enjoy one another's company and learn more about God's Word. Shady Grove has a variety of classes available for all ages to be able to come and join us for a great time of fellowship and learning. We enjoy breakfast together at 9:30 in our Activities Center before Sunday School begins at 10:00. Please come, bring your friends and family, and join us as we share with each other before our morning worship service.
Adult IV (Ages 60 and up)
Teacher: Ed Carpenter
You may retire from work, but you never retire from the work of the Lord. Our ministry gives senior adults a place to continue to grow in their faith and to show the wisdom they have achieved through experience.
Adult III (Ages 40-59)
Teacher: Dwayne George
The Adult III class is designed to help strengthen your faith in Jesus Christ. You will share experiences, learn, and worship that will help you grow spiritually and discover God's will for you and your family. The adult ministry offers a variety of opportunities for worship, Bible study, personal and spiritual growth, recreation, and fellowship. It is a place where one can come and find a whole group of caring friends as well as God's love.
Adult II (Ages 30-39)
Teacher: Steve Paschall
The Adult II class provides an opportunity for you to meet together with people your age and study the Word of God. The truths that are taught from God's Word are given in such a way that you can take them and apply them to your daily life. In this ministry, you will find opportunities to learn, grow, and fellowship with others.
Adult I: Singles & Young Married Couples without Children
Teacher: Joey Bailey
The Adult I class is specifically designed to give fellowship opportunities for singles and young couples without children while learning weekly from God’s Word. In this class, you will learn about specific topics that can help us live out our Christianity in our daily lives. Activities are scheduled monthly to enjoy fellowship time together outside of the classroom environment.
Teen (Ages 13-19)
Teacher: Lynn Glover
Young people must be taught the clear commandments of God's Word. The Bible says in II Timothy 2:2, "And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also."
The purpose of the local church youth ministry is to help equip families with the necessary tools from God's Word to lay the right foundation for the rest of life. It is of our task to take the place of parents by keeping young people active while separated from home and family. We must work to help entire families serve the Lord together. The essential for the youth minister is to walk with God and work with parents.
Junior (Ages 7-12)
Teacher: Wendy Johnson
The junior class provides an opportunity for young people to hear the truths of God's Word on a level that they can understand and apply to their lives. The students will enjoy a time of fellowship, learning, and fun.
Primary (Ages 3-6)
Teachers: Kay Woods, Amie Woods
Children are a gift from God. They are given to parents, and it is the responsibility of parents to give their children back to God. Giving a child to God involves first the surrender of the parents' will to the will of God.
Nursery (Ages 0-2)
Teacher: Beverly Copley
Nothing serves as so precious a reminder of God's blessing to us as the birth of a child. Every newborn baby should have the joy and privilege of being brought into a truly Christian home. It is the responsibility of the local church nursery and preschool ministry to provide all the help possible to parents as they seek to serve the Lord, bring their children to church, and teach their children to know God. With all the attention given to the physical facilities of the nursery and preschool, let us never forget the vital importance of the Christian Family.
