Sunday School
“Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it”.
-Proverbs 22:6
​
Holy Trinity Sunday school was initiated by Rev. John Shrisunder in the year 1994 during his tenure as a Parish priest with ten children. Mrs. Neelmani Khisty was the Superintendent of the Sunday school for more than 20 years.
Holy Trinity Church in Aurangabad is the only English Church that conducts its Sunday School worship in English catering to the need of the Christian people who come from various parts of the country due to job transfers or are
settled here.
Sunday school classes are held on all Sundays except on special Sundays, after the first part of the worship service.All children are blessed by the Priest-in-charge before they leave for their Sunday school classes. We begin our session with a word of prayer by a student, singing, reading the Bible and meditation. Children are categorized according to their age.
