"Worship is a place where God's children - both young and old - come to receive His gifts and return thanks with prayer, praise and song, but not every child connects with God on the same level," says Pastor Smith. This Summer, children ages 9 & under will have a special 15-20min break-away event each Sunday during church to engage in a project or activity related to the bible lessons and/or theme of the day. Kids will come to worship with their families and sing the opening songs, receive God's forgiveness, pray, hear the bible readings and even get their own sermon; you know, the children's message that everyone looks forward to each week! After the children's message, they will join adult volunteers who will help them work on a weekly project. Don't fret, though, because the kids will return from their project in time to join their families and receive a blessing at the Lord's Table. It is our hope to deepen the kids' experience of God on Sunday and help them engage their faith with hands-on opportunities. Call the church secretary at 624.1766 if you would like to know more or to sign up to work with the kids for 15-20mins one Sunday this summer!
