What does this mean for KidVenture on that night?
- Children's Choir will meet as usual from 6-6:30 in Room L7
- KidVenture Wednesday Night & Mission Kids will begin at 6:30, as usual, but will end 35 minutes early at 6:55 pm, so children can attend the service with their families. Please plan to pick your child up before 7 pm so you can attend the prayer service together.
- Nursery/Childcare will be available in Room 109 for infants and children up through Preschool during the Prayer Service (7-7:30 pm).
(Preschool Note: If your Preschooler attends KidVenture, and you prefer they not attend the Prayer Service we ask that you pick them up from Room L3 before 7 pm and check them into the Nursery. KidVenture volunteers will not be asked to make this transfer. Thank you for your cooperation.)
