Nursery Care

We invite families with children under the age of three to take advantage of Nursery Care at any point during the morning. Nursery care provides love and care to our little ones, as well as a Bible story (as able). Available from 9:00 am to 12:15 pm each Sunday morning in Room 109. Please register your child for Nursery Care ahead of time, if possible. Otherwise, staff will request pertinent information upon checking in.
KidsConnect & WeeConnect
9:30 – 10:40 am
Children start the morning in the 9:30 am worship service with their families. After the Thought for Children we will dismiss to the Heckert Education Center. We will begin with a gathered time downstairs in the large gathering area to watch the Bible story unfold (in true storyteller fashion) and then wonder about the story and what it means for them. Then, they will break into their age-specific classroom time for “Sads & Glads” prayer time and small group response activities. They will explore God’s word using the Celebrate Wonder Curriculum. Questions or for more info, contact Jill Reichert.
Journey Series: Exploring Our Christian Faith Through Indigenous Peoples’ Perspectives
10:45 am
Led by Betsy Ballantyne, we will reflect on Christian history regarding indigenous people and the Christians’ role in that history, and also explore our Christian responsibility today when it comes to indigenous people. Attend via Zoom.
Young Children & Worship
11 am – 12:10 pm
Children start the morning in the 11 am worship service with their families. After the Thought for Children we will dismiss to the Chapel. We gather using the model of Young Children and Worship where children learn and experience worship and the story in ways that speak to children and their natural wonder and spiritual nature. Children will respond to the story in creative and artistic ways. Older children may be engaged as mentors or leaders in our gatherings to promote leadership skills and develop relationships.
Youth Choir Rehearsal
5- 6 pm
6-12th graders are invited to come out to make music together at Youth Choir rehearsal. Bring a friend and stay for whatever part of the evening works for your family! Questions or to sign up a youth, contact Kirsten Santos Rutschman.
Youth Group
5:30- 7:30 pm
We’ll explore a posture of crying out to God in the midst of suffering, hardship, and doubt. Through Psalm 130 and the story of Job, we will wonder together where God is in our suffering and how we speak with radical honesty to God about our experiences of pain
