Children's ChurchChildren's Church meets on 2nd. and 4th.Sunday of each month after the scripture reading in church. This worship experience is designed for children enrolled in kindergarten thru 5th grade. We meet on the first floor.
Children will hear scripture during God's Story/Our Story. This is followed by a message about the scripture - the messages often involve skits and puppets or games. Children will learn worship songs - both traditional hymns and contemporary praise songs. We will work on learning the doxology and the Lord's prayer so we can participate during "big church." Children will also create a classroom project about the worship topic for the day. Come and join us at Children's Church we can't wait to see you! YOUTHJuly
