At Hosanna, we take a two-fold method to Faith Formation.
We believe that children grow in faith and learn by being in worship. They experience God’s grace and love by being part of a faith community. This is essential for faith formation. Therefore, children of all ages are welcome and encouraged to worship in community with their family.
Faith formation also occurs in meaningful, hands-on, discussion-based learning opportunities geared to age-specific learners. These learning opportunities take place one Sunday per month following worship and will focus on what has been happening in worship and the life of the church.
