About IPCG Sunday School

Have you ever wondered about the origins and history of Sunday school?

The efforts of Mr Robert Rakes of England to teach the children Bible stories in a systematic way resulted in the formation of an organization called the “Sunday School” in 1780. Within a few years it had spread to many countries and by 1790 about 3 lakh students had become Sunday school students. The world Sunday school union was formed in 1808 and India Sunday schools union started functioning at Allahabad in 1876.  The Bible education of the children was the vision of the Church. 

Our Activities

1.  VBS

By the Grace of God, VBS is being held in our church from the past two years.  This was a great time for fun.  Kids enjoyed a lot with the games, puzzles, acting out stories, actions songs etc.  We can say that VBS is an opportunity to reveal God, an opportunity to present the Gospel, an opportunity for children to memorize Scripture etc.

June 23-27, 2017 : First VBS was conducted at our church premises by Timothy Institute, Kerala. About 60 children were attended.

June 28-30, 2018 :  Second VBS (Vacation Smart Camp) conducted by Operation Child which was a great success. About 140 children participated. 

2. Sunday School Sunday

4. Sunday School Examination

Many students currently studying in our Sunday School from KG to Class-11.

Every year Sunday School exams are held under the leadership of IPC Delhi State Sunday School. Our Church participated in all exams and our children retained overall trophy.
