school home.

CRANBERRY TWP. — Feb.
08, 2005— The New England Conference of the United Methodist
Church (
NEUMC
) has teamed up with the shared miniistry effort of the Western Pennsylvania
Annual Conference (
WPAUMC
) , Dutilh UMC of Cranberry, PA (
Dutilh UMC
), and Simply Christian® to provide the Online Sunday School™ (OSS)
to the 554 congregations of the NEUMC.
"Just a couple
months ago while forming this shared ministry we talked about
hopefully being able to bring the OSS to children and churches
beyond Western Pennsylvania in 2005. In January we began
to make the OSS available to the congregations of the New England
Conference. It is hard to imagine, but the OSS in now
available to United Methodist Churches in eight states! What's
next?", says Marianne C. Ferrans, co-founder of
the Simply Chrisitan ministry.
About Simply Christian’s Online
Sunday School™ (OSS):
The OSS is a great way for your church to further the
Sunday school experience for churches,
parents, teachers,
and children. From the privacy of their own
home or from any computer, parents and their children can
have access to their church's Sunday school Bible readings and a suite of
related interactive puzzles, quizzes, and
games. Teachers can download lessons and activities. The
Bible reading and activities are updated weekly, providing the children
with a new and different experience every week. The weekly readings
are based on the Lectionary Calendar or can be customized.
About Simply Christian®:
Simply Christian® is
a shared ministry of the Western Pennsylvania Annual Conference
of the United Methodist Church (
WPAUMC
) and
Dutilh United Methodist Church
of Cranberry Township. Through a combination of education, consulting,
and working closely with Conferences, we help churches further their Sunday
school program and Internet presence via the Online Sunday School™.
