Keep Kids Engaged
Got kids? We love kids. Children are encouraged to participate in the worship service! Make the most of online worship – talk to them about the different parts of worship and why we pray together, listen to scripture and sing. Give your children a chance to make their faith their own during this time.
Kids’ Worship
Children are invited to Kids’ worship on Sundays after the regular worship service. We are overjoyed to continue offering our young people their own space for leadership.
Book recommendations
We have been reading some great books during Story Time in online worship. See what books we’ve shared in online worship in the list below.
Children can ask some tough questions, and caregivers don’t always feel prepared to answer them. Here’s a list of books that may help you talk to your child about grief.
