For summer 2025, Bethel’s eight Children’s Summer Catechism classes are set for 10 to 11 a.m. on Tuesdays starting Tuesday, June 24, and running through Tuesday, August 19. Due to VBS, there will be no class on July 29. Further lesson schedule and details below.
The catechism includes 99 questions and answers, so obviously students cover only a portion of them in a single summer session. Some of this year’s questions are repeats from last summer while others will be new. In this way, returning students benefit from a review, while learning new material.
For their weekly home study, students should memorize the answers to the week’s questions as well as the Bible verses that support each answer.
The adult catechism is a tool for fathers and mothers to learn these things for themselves and to better instruct their sons and daughters. As parents study each week with their children, the summertime will be more profitable for both parents and children.
Design of the children's catechism is to supplement the adult version available in the foyer of the Bethel sanctuary. These catechisms were compiled with the hope that families would regularly talk about the great truths of the Bible and that parents would teach their children.
