SPARK: Activate Faith - For children ages 3 through 5th grade Our Sunday School program will be centered in the Augsburg Fortress rotation curriculum, “SPARK: Activate Faith.” Spark is a Bible-centered curriculum built on traditional Christian values. To learn more about SPARK please see the website at www.activatefaith.org. • Spark is for children who are at least 3 years old through 5th grade. • All parents with participating children are asked to give at least three (3) Sundays a year to help. • Think of these classes as thematic units—try to attend all of the Sundays in each unit.
