 -for Infants & Toddlers to Age 3

Our nursery is staffed at all three services. Caring, experienced attendants are hired to ensure the safety and nurture of God’s youngest children—your precious cargo. Childcare is also provided for various committee meetings and study groups.  Back to Children

-for Pre-Kindergarten through 3rd Graders

We offer a combination of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd and Godly Play. Our programs are Montessori-based with our classrooms being called “Atriums”. This helps our children better understand the culture during the time Jesus was a child, and when Christianity was developing in the early Church. Our teachers are specially trained to help the children develop personal images of God through experiential learning opportunities. Research shows that children, by working with child-sized models, and learning about prayer and other foundational rituals of the faith, can develop a deep and personal relationship with God at this very malleable stage of their lives. The teachers are fellow discovers with the children.  Back to Children 

Club 45 (4th and 5th Grades)

Children in 4th and 5th grade meet and learn Bible stories through games, skits, crafts, and sharing.

-Children’s Chapel

Chapel provides an alternative for children, ages 3 through 8, who may not always be ready to sit through the 8:45 or 11:00 a.m. liturgy. This is not considered an alternative to Sunday School but is offered as a ministry to parents who may need the time for worship and personal reflection. Children’s Chapel is a volunteer staffed activity to provide the children a time of sacred play. Children will process to Chapel and will be brought to join their parents for Eucharist at the passing of the Peace. Back to Children
