SUNDAY MORNING FORMATION

 

NURSERY MINISTRY

We currently provide nursery care for children ages infant - 5 years old each Sunday from 9:00am – 12:00pm.  Our nursery staff are paid employees of the church.  Additionally we have a small pool of church members who volunteer in the nursery as needed.

PRESCHOOL CLASS

This class is geared toward our Pre-K group and will be led by Harmon Patterson in the nursery. The curriculum will be a combination of Godly Play and Bible story time.  

KID'S WORD/CHILDREN’S CHAPEL

Kids Word meets on Sundays during the 10:30am service and is geared toward children in K - 3rd grade.  Children are dismissed from the church for a lectionary based children's sermon, music, and games, and are brought back into the church prior to communion.  Kids Word does not meet on Sundays that have a morning prayer service.  Kids Word is led by a rotating group of volunteer leaders as well as one assisting parent each week.

CHILDREN’S FORMATION GROUPS 

Our formation groups meet from 9:30am - 10:15am during the traditional school year.  We currently have a preschool class and an elementary class.  Bible stories and lessons are presented to each class in an engaging way and include fun games or crafts which tie into the lesson.  The Preschool class meets in Room 5 (around the corner from the nursery) and the Elementary class meets in Room 4.

**All staff and volunteers associated with the children's ministry are trained in safe church procedures and have taken the Episcopal diocese Safeguarding God's Children courses**
