Children & Youth

Childcare
From 9:30 a.m. to noon, children from newborn to toddlers are cared for by staff and volunteers in Room 209.

During the church year, children and families are encouraged to attend the 9:50 a.m. First Service in the Chapel, which is designed especially for young families. Care for children of all ages is offered during both the 9:50 a.m. First Service and the 10:30 a.m. Sanctuary Service.

Parents who wish to remain with their children are also welcome to bring them to the Heritage Room where they can listen to the 10:30 worship service while caring for their young children.

Church School
At 10:30, classes are offered for children, three years of age through 6th grade. Once each month, children participate in Sanctuary Sunday, beginning the morning in worship before going to Church School classes.
