Youth...The Next Generation
Sunday Morning is a time of worship for both Adults and Children!
We want Sunday worship to be a family experience. We love it when kids worship alongside their parents, even with all the squirms and squalls. They are an important part of the future of our church. We also understand that sitting through a worship service can be a challenge for younger kids, and that can also detract from worship experience for parents and others. If you choose, we have a staffed nursery for children 2 years and younger, and also offer Sunday School!
Nursery
If you choose, we have a screened staffed nursery for children 2 years and younger.
For those in need, our nursery is located to the right of the sanctuary in a closed and quiet room. There is a rocking chair and a few toys available, along with an adjustable speaker to hear the services.
A bathroom and changing area are available next to the room as well.
Sunday School
Sunday School is offered during both Sunday morning services throughout the school year.
