Did you know that Sunday School was created in the 18th century in order to prevent children in the "slums" from entering a life of crime? It was first established by Robert Raikes in Gloucester, England. The curriculum consisted of first learning to read and then to the catechism. Other than a small break for lunch, the program also lasted from 10:00 am to 5pm. That's quite a program!
