Sunday School

Regular Weekly Children’s Worship:   Sunday School will meet in-person at St. Thomas’s three or four Sundays a month, gathering at 10:15 a.m. for an opening activity and beginning the lesson/worship as the 10:30 a.m. worship service begins in the sanctuary.  Children aged 4 to grade 6 are invited to participate. Seventh graders are currently invited to participate as junior leaders but if our number of 7th graders exceeds 3, a separate plan will be implemented for them. If community health changes make it necessary, our program will be held virtually on Zoom and families will be notified of the change.  Our main framework will be a worship schedule that mimics the liturgy of the Episcopal Church: greeting and opening prayer, liturgy of the word, response in the form of art and prayer, and feast and fellowship.  This schedule may differ by age group or week depending on topics and activities.

For more info, visit Children's Ministry at our website: Children’s Ministries – St. Thomas's Episcopal Parish (stthomasnewarkde.church) or contact Belinda Young-Payne at St. Thomas’s by phone at (302) 388-4017. or via email at belmar43@aol.com.

UD Ballroom Dancers- public class


Meets in the Great Hall


Classes are $15 for students and $35 for non-students (for the whole four-week session).

What if I have no dance experience?
Don't worry, most people are beginners. We tailor each class to fit the level of the participants.

What do I wear?
Any comfortable clothing will do. We do ask that you wear comfortable shoes that are securely attached to your feet. Anything that has a tendency to slip off is potentially dangerous. For women, heels are alright if you are comfortable in them, but under 3" is preferred. If you don't feel comfortable wearing heels, flats or sneakers are fine.

How do I register for a public class?
Just show up 10 to 15 minutes early for the first class of the session. The beginning of each session can be found on the calendar. We will ask you to submit your payment and fill out a short contact information sheet for our records in case of emergency cancellations.

If I come with a partner will I be dancing with him/her the entire time?
We encourage rotation of partners during class because it helps the learning process; however, it is not required.
