Our Children’s Ministries program serves children from birth to 5th grade and their families. Our goal is to provide quality programming that encourages children to develop their relationship with God, the church community, and the world around them.

Children in Liturgy
We encourage families to sit near the front of the church so that they can see what is happening throughout the service. We welcome children of all ages, and we understand that this means a little more noise and commotion. Families are invited to sit on the left side of the church up front where we have a special family space. Here the children can see what is happening at the altar. You will find some quiet activities for children of all ages, and there are also worship bags that you may pick up in the Narthex. We do ask that families clean up the space before they leave.
We encourage children to sign up to be Readers, Jr. Acolytes, and Acolytes
