Children's Chapel Every Sunday During June
Children of all ages are invited to Children's Chapel during the 10am service each Sunday in the month of June. Children's Chapel is a bit different from Church School (Church School runs Sept-May). Instead of dropping off your child before the 10am service starts, your child should begin the service with you in the sanctuary. During the hymn before the reading of the gospel, the children can follow Bryn (and the children's cross) down the aisle and out to the chapel. We'll have a short children's lesson during the reading and sermon, and come back by the passing of the peace. Children's Chapel is not divided by ages: we stay as one multi-age group. Here's a preview of our final Sunday of Children's Chapel:
- June 25: Prayer Practices for Kids: Throughout the year, we try out different prayer practices during Church School. You also see some prayer practice tools in the rainbow of Worship Bags. This Sunday, we'll think about the different ways we pray -- from Psalms to Prayer Books to Glitter Sticks -- and make our own Prayer Dough.

Parish Weekend Away: One Cabin Left!
Registration for our Parish Weekend Away is open and we have one camper cabin left for those who wish to stay overnight.
This means you will be placed in a cabin which has bunk beds, electricity, heat, and bathrooms -- so, only mildly-campish. Camper cabins, because of their size, will have at least five people per cabin. Our retreat team will thoughtfully match up families or individuals to share these cabins. (Or, if you've got a large family, you might get your own!)
If you can't come for the full weekend, please come for the day on Saturday. You must register for this option, with the link below.
For more information please visit 3crowns.org. Please register HERE.

Childcare for Infants & Toddlers During 10am Worship for Ages 0-3: Summer Schedule
Our nursery is open most Sundays during the summer, but not every Sunday, as our caregivers travel and rest. At this time, we have a staffed nursery on June 25; July 2, 9, 16, and 23; and August 6 and 27. We will let registered families know if this changes. 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: |
