Sunday School members should be encouraged to meet the needs of other persons in the spirit of Christ. This may take the form of personal service, concrete acts of caring expressed in material support, encouraging words, affirmations, or simply taking the time to listen. This task is at the heart of loving and caring fellowship.

5. Lead members to worship.
The Sunday School should regularly interpret the biblical teaching on worship and provide materials for use in personal worship. The Sunday School should motivate individuals and families to worship and guide them in doing so.

6. Interpret and undergird the work of the church and the denomination.
The Sunday School should be available to present the goals, plans and activities of the church and the denominations, and to explain their significance. It also means that the Sunday School cooperatively supports the work of the other church ministries and those of the denomination. The Sunday School is an organization that is a part of the church and the denomination.
