Sunday School Ministry
THEME: “Discipleship and Mission”. Memory Verse: For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted. And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Luke 14:11; Luke 14:27; Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV).
