Spiritual Activities
Sunday School
In Luke 18:16 Jesus says “let the little children come to me and do not hinder them for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these” and in Proverb 22:6 King Solomon says “Train a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not turn from it” In order to practice these teachings as well as to teach the children our true faith we are conducting Sunday School classes in the church and in all the four chapels. More than five hundred students are studying in all the five Sunday schools. About seventy-five teachers are extending their dedicated service to enucleate noble character of the little children.
