CHILDRENS' CHURCH

1

We continue to expand our children's ministry with Children's Church. A number of parents have asked that we have a different program for their children.

Beginning Sunday, June 15, 2008, Ted Parsons will lead Childrens' Church (Kindergarten through 4th grade ) during the 11:00 AM Service (11:15 -11:55) It will begin prior to the Gospel reading and will continue for about 40 minutes , or until communion begins.

Please bring your children every week to study the bible, pray, and learn from the same lessons adults hear in church. The lessons are based on the Episcopal Church Lectionary. Parents are welcome to attend Childrens church too, if desired. Adults interested in joining or supporting this ministry are urged to contact the office.
