Welcome to Grace Montreal Church's website for Children's Ministry. This blog is to be a resource to the teachers for GMC Sunday school as well as for the parents of GMCKidz.

Currently, we are looking into how to best teach God's children through curricula. Please be praying for us during this discernment process.

We are always looking for more volunteers. Please keep this need in prayer, and read the information on the role on our blog to consider serving our community in this way!

Resources Available to Teachers and Families

Available Resources:

The lesson:
- The lesson and teacher schedule will be posted on this blog and at GMC so that the teachers and parents can reference it.
- Information will be communicated with the parents through a newsletter 4 times a year with regards to our vision, the lessons, and how they can be involved.

Materials:
- The lesson for each week will be photocopied (activities, story, songs, puzzles) and placed in a manila envelope with the date, teacher and topic labelled on the front for the next 10 weeks. I will store these under the stairs.
- Copies of the CD will be made available for the families as soon as possible.
- Common materials for the crafts and activities will be available in the storage area.

Welcoming:
- I (Rebecca) will introduce myself to any new families before the service.
- I will help bring the children downstairs in the case where there is no helper.
- I will bring down the snacks within the first 15 minutes of the sermon.
- I will bring down any late arrivals once the sermon has started and the class has gone downstairs.

During the class:
- In the event where there is no helper, I will always be available by text if you need help because there are too many kids, or you need to bring one child upstairs.
