Kindergarten (or 4 yrs old) - 6th Grade

What is Godly Play?

"Children have an innate sense of the presence of God. The Godly Play approach helps them to explore their faith through story, to gain religious language and to enhance their spiritual experience though wonder and play. Based on Montessori principles and developed using a spiral curriculum, the Godly Play method serves children through early, middle and late childhood and beyond. Come join us!"        - Godly Play Foundation

The children gather during the 10:30 service to hear a Godly Play story, explore and wonder how God is at work in the world and their lives through art, music and play. They learn about our liturgy in ways that are accessible to them, pray together and then join their families for after the Exchange of Peace for Holy Communion.

      Tween Sunday School - Ages 9-12

Our Tweens meet in the East office during the 10:30 service for a fun, interactive discussion on faith with our awesome team of leaders! We have an amazing group of Tweens who love to learn more about God and spend time together. They enter the service with the other children for Holy Communion and as always all children of all ages are welcome and invited to worship during the whole service with their families.
