Our Teachers

Our Teachers
Our lead teachers have extensive experience teaching children and commit to working with our children for an entire church year, September to June. In keeping with our Safe Church policy, it is our goal to always have two adults in a classroom.

Our Curriculum

All of our children and youth will be working with the curriculum Bible Quest for the 2007-2008 church program year. This integrative curriculum is the result of the collaborative, ecumenical effort of several Protestant denomination.

Christian Education

The education of children, youth, and adults is an important part of the life of First Baptist Church in Beverly. We encourage learners of all ages to explore, question and embrace a life of Christian faith and service. An open and inclusive American Baptist church with respect for varied religious traditions, First Baptist aims to teach the Christian story, to nurture a love for worship, and to help children, youth, and adults discern how to be Jesus' disciples bringing peace, justice, and personal integrity to this world.

Connections for Children

Our children's Sunday mornings begin at 9:30 a.m. as they come together for the Opening Time. All children through fifth grade gather in the Dove Room on the lower level for a child-centered lesson. At 9:45 a.m. children go to their classrooms with their teachers. Middle School and Senior High Youth gather together in the Youth Lounge at 9:30 a.m.

Connections for Adults

Faith is a journey, not a destination. At First Baptist, a commitment to adult education encourages adults to continue to work on their faith, to question, to wonder, and to make connections. New members are always welcome in our adult classes, at any point in the year. Unless otherwise noted, classes meet at 9:30 a.m. on Sunday mornings.
