Christian Education @ "The River"

In Christian Education we believe that Sunday School is the place to discover what it means to be Christian, to be holy, and to reach and disciple people of all ages.

Every Sunday morning at 9:15 a.m. we meet in our fellowship hall for continental breakfast.  Small groups begin at 9:45 a.m.   At Elk River Nazarene Church we believe in providing learning opportunities for every age. 

The Great Commission drives our connection; Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I command you; and lo, I am with you always.” Matthew 28:19-20
