Classes meet from 9:45 a.m. – 10:45 a.m on Sunday Mornings.
Our children ages 4 through the fourth grade are following a wonderful series called DEEP BLUE CONNECTS. This coordinates with the Deep Blue Bible, a Common English translation, which we give to third graders.
This curriculum does an excellent job of helping students learn a Bible story and then apply lessons to daily life. Our hour together includes songs, crafts, drama, DVD’s, and other experiential learning
Children’s Church is offered following the children’s sermon. This is for children ages 3 though 2nd grade. They will hear the Bible story of the day, either read or from a children’s DVD. We particularly like The Rhyme Bible, The Jesus Storybook Bible and the Read and Share Bible and DVD series. There is usually a coloring sheet or craft to reinforce the lesson of the day. Children’s Church is led by our Director of Christian Education, Belinda Winkle, along with lay volunteers.
Nursery
Our wonderful, professional nursery staff is available at both the 8:30am and 11:00am services on Sunday to care for and minister to your newborns to 3-year-olds.
Kids Music
Wednesdays
September – May
Kids Music meets in the Music Suite weekly on Wednesdays. The program offers age–appropriate activities for students 4 yrs old through 5th grade. Each week, kids are divided into groups based on age where they can focus on music by learning hymns, exploring the basics of notation, playing instruments, and singing about God’s love and promises for us! Then, they rotate classrooms to learn more about music appreciation of composers, instruments, and music in the church! Kids Music provides the opportunity for musical involvement for our children in the Sunday services and in special programs.
