<p>217.233.28.77: </p> <hr /> <div>A function of the [[Seventh-day Adventist church]] that roughly matches [[Sunday School]] in most other [[Protestant]] denominations.<br /> <br /> Usually occurs around 9:30am on [[Saturday]] [[mornings]] before the [[worship service]] starts. The Sabbath school service usually has two portions. The first portion begins with a [[song service]], followed by a mission emphasis and a short talk. The second, and larger portion, is the lesson study.<br /> <br /> [[Adult]] church members are provided with a [[Sabbath School Lesson]] study guide that is issued every [[quarter]], known as the [[quarterly]]. The quarterly is designed to be read during the [[week]], so that during Sabbath School, the class members are ready to discuss questions and topics raised in that lesson in small groups. The Adult Sabbath School always has a heavy focus on the [[Bible]]. All [[Seventh-day Adventists]] around the world use the same Sabbath school quarterly, [[translated]] into the necessary [[languages]] (with few exceptions such as Germany, who cover the same topic with different material). The current [[editor]] of the Adult Sabbath School lessons is [[Clifford Goldstein]].<br /> <br /> At the same time as the adult study, [[children]] attend classes aimed at their age group. Typical age group divisions are Cradle Roll (infants), Kindergarten (K), Primary (Grades 1-3), Junior (Grades 4-6), Earliteen (Grades 7-8), and Youth (High School). Each age division has its own specific quarterly, titled by the class name, except: Juniors and Earliteens share the same quarterly; and Youth, which use either ''Cornerstone'' or ''Collegiate Quarterly''. In some churches, the children receive a weekly [[magazine]] at the close of Sabbath school, which they can read quietly during the [[sermon]]. Kindergarten receives [[Our Little Friend]], Primary receives [[Primary Treasure]], Juniors and Earliteens receive [[Guide]], and the Youth receive [[Insight]]. The most popular magazine tends to be Guide.<br /> <br /> When Sabbath School draws to a close, people file back into the [[sanctuary]] and the worship service begins, usually at 11:00am.<br /> <br /> ==External Links==<br /> *http://www.adventist.org/bible_study/sabbath_school.html.en<br /> *http://www.ssnet.org/</div>
