Our Children's Ministry offers classes and activities for children of

Please accompany your children to the pews where your children's class meets. It is important that you let your children's teachers know that you are leaving your children with them. After Sunday school, please come quickly to pick up your children, as most of our teachers attend second service with their families.

Recent News from the Children's Ministry
I appreciate that you are keeping your first graders with you during the sermon time. It helps having a smaller age span with which to work. The youth volunteers have really been an important part of keeping the second service Children’s Church alive. We have between 12 and 20 children each Sunday. The youth help keep the peace during the story time, work with the children during craft and game time, and help new children adjust. Please give the youth helpers a big thank you when you come to get your children.
Have you ever wondered what your children are learning in Sunday school? Ask them, look at their papers, have them tell you one thing that they learned from the lesson that they will use throughout the week. In turn, share what you are learning in your Sunday school class.
Thank you for having your children here consistently and on time each Sunday.
Nancy Brennan, our first service attendant, will be taking a few months off. Tiffany Hart is willingly stepping in to help out while Nancy is gone. We still have a need for one more lady to help out once a month in the nursery during first service. If you would like to rock or play with a baby once a month, please contact Jennifer Eshleman.
If you wonder about church growth, you might want to look into the nursery rooms during second service. There you will see at least 10 babies and toddlers entertaining our nursery attendant and volunteers.
Jennifer Page has felt led to use her talent to develop a Children’s Page that will co-ordinate with the sermon each Sunday. The activities on this page will be geared toward the first through third grader. There will be a quiet activity, and a couple of family discussion questions. You will find the Children’s Page in the bulletin starting the first or second Sunday in November. What a blessing this will be to the families who have children that have outgrown Children’s Church.
