CHILDREN’S MESSAGE
On Communion Sundays (typically the first Sunday of the month), a Children's Message takes place during worship in lieu of Sunday School. This is a time for children to come to the altar during worship for a short lesson. Parents/guardians are welcome to come up front to sit with a small or shy child.This way, children are given the chance to experience a full worship service that includes communion.
NURSERY/TODDLER ROOM
Nursery care is available for infants through age three to be cared for while their chosen adult attends worship. However, children of any age are always welcome to attend the worship services.
