I bid you greetings in the precious and powerful name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. As
Superintendent of the 60 Minutes Ministry formerly known as Sunday School , I coordinate the efforts of
the ministry and is responsible for seeing that the goal of the ministry is lived out. The goal of the ministry is to fulfill all of the core values (Grow, Serve, Belong, Share and Celebrate) of Star Hill Baptist Church through an organized, balanced approach within the context of an hour, not in an hour, but within the context of an hour. It could be said that the 60 Minutes is a purpose driven Sunday School. However, it is much more than Sunday School or another name given to Sunday School. It is an integral part of “How We Do Church At Star Hill.” The 60 Minutes starting time is 9:30 am and ends at 10:30 am.

Again, the ministry is open to all ages and seeks to honor God by providing opportunities for everyone to fulfill the core values: Grow in an intentional and accountable way. Serve with passion and be equipped for ministry. Belong to one another through healthy small groups and genuine fellowship. Share their story actively and effectively in everyday relationships. And Celebrate the awesomeness of God in an excellent and vibrant way. 60 Minutes is a place where you can be connected with the 4 Pillar Structure of Star Hill, which replaces Kingdom Expansion Groups. 60 Minutes is Star Hill’s version of small groups or cell groups. It is our prayer that you become a part of a 60 Minutes Group where you can share some exciting times with us. 60 Minutes the educational as well as the relationship building aspect of Star Hill. Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32
