Welcome Parents!
We love the sound of kids in our service! God made kids wiggly and curious and we celebrate that here. Here are some ideas to keep them engaged.
Grab your Worship Toolbox: Boxes/bags are found at the back of the church & contain helpful tools for teaching your child how to worship. Coloring pages & clipboards are also available.
Sit Close: Consider sitting up front where it’s easier for kids to see. You are encouraged to utilize our prayground up front. It’s fun!
Explain: Kids are curious! Quietly explain what is happening in the service.
Participate: Kids learn by mimicking what you do. So sing, pray, respond etc.-kids will follow your lead.
Wander: It’s OK to move around. Sometimes kids need a chance to move their bodies.
Need to leave? No problem, but please come back!
Babies & Toddlers are welcome too! Quiet toys, board books & a rocking chair are available in the prayground.
Ask: Questions or need help? Just ask our ushers.
Children’s Ministry Information
Please note: Due to the recent departure of our Faith Formation Minister, we are are currently updating our programs for children and youth. Please check back in the next few months for updates!
Meanwhile, your children are welcome here, to sit with you in the pews during our Worship Services, or to sit at the “Prayground” a space at the front of the church near the piano, where children can do fun things while still listening to the worship service.. There are coloring books and other activities for busy hands and minds! There is also a rocking chair for a parent with their little one to rock.
Our Core Values that are woven into every lesson, group, program and event are
1) Love God
2) Love and care for all of God’s people including all races, all sexual orientations, all gender expressions and all abilities.
3) Serve our community and our world.
Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of every month, and children of all ages are invited to participate. Children and youth bring their offerings to worship through music, special readings, drama and other lively activities.
