UIM SS:
- UIM SS can be offered in two ways.
(1) Invite Your Entire Congregation
(2)Divide existing SS Classes into United Intergenerational Family Groups. Use existing teachers and helpers to complete the generations.
- After You Decide Which Way You Will Offer UIM SS:
- divide those who attend into family groups of 5 to 8, with no more than 10.
- stay in the same room and work with family groups at separate tables, OR move into classrooms.
- To offer UIM SS in classrooms:
- you will need a teacher to become a large group leader for each classroom, just as you do for traditional SS classrooms.
- Classrooms can be one family group, or several family groups.
- You can meet as a large group for the Opening and then proceed to Classrooms, returning to do a the craft as a large group, if you desire.
- The Opening could include the Opening Song, Opening Activity and even the Bible Story, as you desire.
- Also, you can offer UIM SS:
- every week, once or twice a month, or several times a year.
- to your entire congregation every time or only at certain times.
- by combining several classes, at special times throughout the year, and even invite the parents and extended families of these classes.
