If your ministry uses Sunday School for small group ministry, then space will be an issue for you. One way to easily make room on your campus for more Sunday School space is to meet multiple hours. Keep these principles in mind as you move forward in planning for multiple Sunday School hours:
1. Take your current facility and count the number of Sunday School rooms you have and multiply by 10. This equation is not very fancy, but it does give you a quick baseline number of how many folks you can minister with and to on Sundays.
2. Remember two important ceilings: preschool rooms and parking. If you move to two Sunday Schools, you cannot double use the parking lot or preschool rooms. You will need space in both of these areas for the max number you are planning to have on campus. One church where I served was in desperate need of moving to two Sunday Schools. But, there was no way to be able to accomodate this because of lack of preschool space and parking. Since then, the church has been blessed to move to a larger campus.
Ask the Lord to help you grow, in every way!
