“He said to them, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.’ ” Mark 10: 13-16
Children are very welcome in our congregation! We welcome all children as they are led on the first steps of their journey of faith.
Children in Worship
During non-COVID times, and in the regular school year, children begin each Sunday worshipping with the congregation at 10 am. Parents are encouraged to help their younger children choose an activity bag available on wooden posts in the narthex to use during the worship service. Following the service, children are invited to attend our Intergenerational Church School.
Our Typical Sunday Morning Schedule

Church School
During non-COVID times, children are welcome to attend church school at 11am. There, children will read Bible stories and learn to connect to the Lord through readings, discussions, games, and crafts!
Our Offerings
The children's church school offerings go to support our partnership with churches in the Dominican Republic. Vacation Bible School (VBS) also provides the opportunity for children to give to missions, i.e. The Storehouse, a local food pantry.

Child care is available in the morning for all infants and toddlers! Tina Davis and a church volunteer are happy to take care of your little ones while you worship.
