Since 2005, the Holy Cross Church Sunday School has strived to awaken and nurture in our students a personal commitment to lifelong discipleship to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
We teach Scripture and the faith of the Armenian Church so that they may provide a relevant foundation for daily life and for the moral choices our children face.
Sunday School helps our children develop a relationship with God and His Church, grow in their faith, and learn about their Christian Armenian religion, culture, and history in a welcoming and fun-filled learning environment.
