Activities for Kids


Children's Worship
Children's Worship is held during the 10:30 worship service on every Sunday except the first Sunday of each month. Two groups meet, divided by age. Both groups, our younger group for pre-school to pre-K, as well as our group for Kindergartners and first graders, share joys and concerns, prayers, offertory, and a story, craft, or game. They also may sing some songs, including our Congregational Benediction, as well as learning some of our more familiar hymns via listening to tapes and CDs as they share in the day's program. For a sample of the program, check out the Weekly Curriculum for pre-school and pre-K and Kindergartners and first graders.

Our goal is to provide a setting where our children can continue to grow in their knowledge of our Christian faith and be prepared, even in small ways, to join the full worship service as they get older.

Tween Worship
During the school year on the last Sunday of the month, children in grades 2-5 gather in the Fellowship Hall for Tween Worship. After sharing of joys and concerns and prayer, they will discover the same Bible Story as it is preached about in the sanctuary using games, skits, and various interactive experimental learning styles. For a sample of the program, check out the curriculum for Tween Worship.
