SUNDAY MORNINGS

Nursery

The nursery provides a loving, nurturing environment for infants and toddlers during both morning services and the Christian Education hour. A Nursery Core Team of parishioners assists the team leaders on a rotational basis.

Sunday School, 9:15 to 10:15 AM

The Sunday School curriculum for children and youth is the lectionary-based, Living the Good News, by Morehouse Publishing. This series reinforces the lessons and gospels read in church each Sunday.

Children’s Chapel, 9:50 to 10:05 AM

Ages 3 to 7

Our Chapel time is an integral part of the Sunday School experience. Children process, led by the cross, to our Children’s Chapel where they lead an abbreviated service and learn about the meaning of liturgy and observances of the church year.

Children’s Word, 10:30 to 11:15 AM

Ages 3 to 7

Children experience their own creative worship time and then process into the church, leading the oblation bearers to the altar before joining their parents for Holy Communion. On the first Sunday of each month, the children gather after they process for a children’s sermon.

Wednesdays, September-May

Kids’ Night Out

Parents need a night out ‘tis true, but our children also enjoy their own “night out.” On the first Friday night of the month, Kids’ Night Out (KNO) is an event that parents and children count on. Parents bring their children to the Parish House for crafts, recreation, movies, and food, while they enjoy their own leisure time. It’s a win-win!
