Age 4-5th Grade

Kids Church: After the Children’s Moment, kids are welcome to gather in the nursery for music and crafts. On non-Communion Sundays, students can be picked up from nursery after the service. On Communion Sundays, children will return to the Sanctuary after the after the sermon to see Communion and partake if desired.
