Matthew 19:14

Wednesdays

Starting at 5:30 pm on some WEDNESDAYS, we provide food and fellowship for the whole family, and then offer programming for the whole church from 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm with such themes as Mission Projects, Game Nights and Art Projects.

Kids on Sunday Morning

What we do: We join our families and our church community in offering children shelter, nurture and spiritual fellowship, empowering them to live according to God’s purpose.  Join us!

Two nurseries to provide loving child care during worship by adult and youth care givers employed by the church.  The nurseries are open fifteen minutes before and after each service.

The nurseries are located on the main level off the narthex. Silent pagers are signed out by all parents and must be returned to the nursery attendant before the children may leave the nurseries.

We also have a Joyful Noise Room available off the narthex.  This room is designed for families with young children who may not be accustomed to worshiping in the sanctuary. 

Infants & Toddlers

Presbyterian Church Nurseries

Infant Nursery
The Infant Nursery serves children up to 18 months of age or older, depending on their ability to walk.  It is located on the main level next to the west entrance.

Toddler & 3 Year-Old Nursery
The Toddler and 3 Year-Old Nursery serves children who are 18 months of age and up to 3 1/2 years old.

Preschool - 5th Grade

Children’s Christian Education

We offer Christian Education to all children, preschool through 5th grade, on Sunday mornings during worship 10:30 am – 11:00 am.  With the Whirl All Kids Curriculum, the children enjoy the Bible stories and the accompanying video, and the messages are clear and strong.  We hope your Pre-K through 5th grade children will join us for Sunday School!

We Love our Teachers!

Special Children's Events

Seasonal programs include a Lenten Spiritual Walk, the Block Party, an Advent Festival and the Christmas Pageant.

Vacation Bible School for 2024 is June 10-13.  Children from the church and community gather for four days of learning and playing together to learn more about God’s love.

Ash Wednesday

Communion Class

All children 1st – 5th grade are invited to attend a meaningful Communion Class held on Ash Wednesday every year.

Come, sit around the Communion table and hear the story of when Jesus broke bread with his disciples and what it means for us today.  Stay for dinner and then join your family for Ash Wednesday service, where you will participate in Communion and receive oil and ashes.  It’s an evening to remember.

It is the policy of this church that all baptized children of any age are invited to receive the Lord’s Supper at the discretion of their parents.

The Children's Library

The Children’s Library is part of the Adult Library next to the Fellowship Hall and is open anytime the church is open for families to check out books to take home. We have a great selection of picture books.  There are also some special Creation Care books for children!
