Children
Infants and Toddlers
Both sides of our nursery are open from 9:30am to 12:30pm. Children ages birth - 18 months will enjoy playing and rocking with their caregiver Rane in the infant nursery. We have an attached crib room for those infants who need to have their morning nap. Children ages 18 months to 3 years will have fun with Sami in the toddler nursery. They will have a light snack, play time, and hear Bible stories.
We have a 'Mother's Room' off of Room 101 to afford those nursing or needing some quiet time with their infant a little privacy.
Children’s Sunday School Classes
Children ages 3-Grade 5 join their families for the beginning of 11:00am worship, and exit the Sanctuary after the Children's Message. Their Sunday School teacher will meet them in the Narthex and walk them to their room. Please pick up children immediately after service. The last page of the bulletin lists our classroom numbers.
Children's Music
Children's music is a part of our Wednesday evening programming, Family @ First. (Every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month.) After a meal with their family, children go to their music class. Chelsea Vaught, our Music Director, leads the children in singing, as well as introducing them to bells and other instruments. Two different classes are offered, one for children ages 3 - Gr K, and one for Gr 1 - Gr 5.
Bucket Brigade Collection
The third Sunday of every month children pass buckets throught the congregation at the 11:00am worship service collecting money for church mission projects. One of the projects the bucket money supports is World Vision International. The children have adopted an 8-year-old Kenyan boy named Njoroge through the World Vision organization. The children keep in touch with Njorge with many letters passed back and forth. The children love to receive their special mail from Africa!
