Children are a vital part of our community of faith and we welcome them and value their presence among us! We offer a variety of programs for children of all ages, including weekly Sunday School classes, special activities throughout the school year, and our annual summer Vacation Bible School.
We welcome children to worship and we invite them to enjoy using the worship activity bags found on the coat trees just outside of the Sanctuary doors. Children are also encouraged to participate in the “Time with Children” each week during the 10:30 a.m. service.
