Church School Begins Again on April 23 We will begin our final Church School unit of the year next Sunday, April 23. During the final month of classes, the Godly Play Class (preK-1st grade) will be learning about the life of Jesus, his parables, and Pentecost. The Story Makers Class (2nd-5th grade) will be introduced to the curriculum of Godly Play (bigger kid style) and learn about the history and organization of the Bible, an overview of the Old Testament, under-recognized (but fascinating!) Biblical personalities, and parables. Spring Church School classes will be held: April 23, April 30, May 14, and May 21. Classes are held at 10am, during the first half of the 10am worship service. Our church school program year ends on Pentecost, which is May 28.

Childcare for Infants & Toddlers During 10am Worship for Ages 0-3
Our nursery is open! Parents and guardians may drop off their young children -- ages 0-3 years -- in the Dewart Room during the 10am service. Our paid and experienced nursery caregivers will be ready to receive babies and toddlers beginning at 9:45am. Parents and guardians must pick up their children by 11:15am, and must remain in the building at all times. Children need to be registered in our system (one-time registration) in order to be dropped off. This gives us important information about allergies, needs, and who may pick up your child. Please register here:
