PICTORIAL DIRECTORY

Please sign Up

Are you a new member who's trying to put faces with names?  Or a longtime member who's trying to put names with faces?  Either way, you'll be pleased to know that the Board of Deacons is making plans for a pictorial directory which we will publish ourselves.  Photos will be taken on Sundays in October; sign-up sheets are available. More information will follow, but please try to get your/your family's photo taken in October.  Questions?  See a deacon!

Pre-school Sunday School

11:00 AM TO 12:00 PM (Rm 205)

The preschool children can begin in Childcare during the early morning. They will be taken to Room 205 at 11:00 AM or you may take them to Room 205 any time between 11:00 AM and 12:10 PM. After 12:10 PM, the children will return to Childcare. Parents may pick up their children in Childcare at the end of church.

Through storytelling, games, and arts and crafts, the 3 and 4 year old children learn Bible stories and begin to explore ways to be kind to each other and our world.

3rd to 5th Grades

Gathering

9:45 AM TO 10:50 PM (Rm 208)

The older elementary school children are hearing stories of the New Testament. We are sharing a more in depth story than the younger children hear. We continue to use the Godly Play style so that the children have the stories and symbols of their Christian faith surrounding them each Sunday.

Through story, wondering and sharing, the children build their faith and their community together each Sunday.
