Sunday School
“With us everything should be secondary compared to our concern with children, and their upbringing in the instruction and teaching of the Lord.”
+ Saint John Chrysostom
The Orthodox Faith is our children’s Salvation. The way we teach our faith will have a lifelong effect on their lives. The Religious Education Program at the Annunciation Cathedral is tailored under the auspices of the Religious Education Ministry of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. Ranging from Preschool thru 12th Grade, our program challenges and enlightens the Youth of our parish.
