    SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS SEMINAR


    On Saturday, September 9, 2006, a seminar was held for Western Prelacy
    Sunday School teachers in preparation for the 2006-2007 academic year. The
    seminar, held under the auspices of and presided by H.E. Archbishop Moushegh
    Mardirossian, Prelate, and organized by the Prelacy Christian Education
    Department, took place at St. Mary's Church in Glendale from 2:00 to 6:00
    p.m. Christian Education Department Directors Very Rev. Fathers Muron
    Aznikian and Barthev Gulumian participated in the seminar along with pastors
    and Sunday School directors and teachers.
    Following opening prayer and the singing of the Sunday School
    hymn, welcoming remarks were made by Mr. Hagop Chaghasspanian, Chairman of
    the Sunday School Central Council. The seminar was comprised of four
    sessions:
    (1) Presentation of projects and activities related to the feasts of each
    Sunday during the academic year.
    (2) Presentation of topics to be taught in September and October (prayers,
    psalms, hymns, feasts).
    (3) Instruction of special hymns relating to the Feasts of the Exaltation
    of the Cross and of the Holy Translators, which occur in September and
    October respectively.
    (4) Video presentation of stories and events of the Bible.

    A question and answer session followed each presentation.

    The Prelate commended the seminar, which gave participants the
    opportunity to voice concerns and plan future projects. Speaking of the
    endeavors of the Christian Education Department serving under the Prelacy,
    the Prelate reminded the teachers that new teaching aids would soon be
    released, including illustrations of Biblical stories and events, a monthly
    curriculum, and a CD of songs and hymns.
    The seminar concluded with the Sunday School hymn and prayer.
