Adventure Kingdom is the heartbeat of the Sunday Christian Formation Hour. Rotation Learning allows children to learn through various styles. Some children best relate to an art project that correlates with a particular Bible story. Others may prefer acting out the story, while still others enjoy a fund, challenging game or project to increase their Bible skills and knowledge of the Episcopal Church. Special areas have been created in the Adventure Kingdom to help the children have exciting learning experiences.

Here is an example of how a Sunday morning works. The Adventure Kingdom consists of a number of destinations. Groups of similar age level go to a different adventure each week during a learning rotation, with rotations usally lasting about four weeks. Each rotation presents a single theme with each destination using a unique learning approach. Every adventure is staffed by one or more ADVENTURE LEADERS and the group'sSHEPHERD . The SHEPHERD stays with the group throughout the learning rotation. The Rotation Learning format facilitates children's learning and retaining information about the Bible, worship, prayer and the Episcopal Church.

Classes for 3 and 4 year olds and kindergarten are offered weekly. These three groups meet in the same room each time with teachers who remain constant for the program year. Bright classrooms, manipulatives, crafts and music highlight early learning about the love of God.

This destination is a replica of an ancient synagogue or temple. The children explore Bible skills by using traditional methods, including the Bible, books, maps, games and projects.

The theater teaches Bible stories by having the children create a script and act it out. There is a stage with real curtains, scenery, props, costumes, wigs, hand puppets and a puppet stage.
 

Computers! They are a wonderful way to learn Bible stories. Using various age-appropriate software, children discover the adventures of Jesus in the Holy Land.
