Children and Youth

The mission of our church is simple: We are here to grow in love of God and neighbor and that absolutely includes children and youth. Sunday School begins at 9:15 during the program year (Sept-May). Infants and toddlers have fun in the nursery, Children ages 4-3rd grade learn the ancient stories of our faith in Godly Play; Children in 4th -6th grade dig deeper into their faith in our Connect Sunday School class; Teens and Tweens learn to embody their faith through Confirmation classes and Our Whole Lives: Sexuality Education (both offered on a rotating/seasonal basis) and young adults through senior citizens have wonderful in-depth, intergenerational conversations in our Seekers Class each Sunday morning. During worship, infants through age 3 are welcome in our nursery, children ages 4-9 are invited to worship quietly with books and toys and activities in our PrayGround, located in the front of our sanctuary. Older children are invited to worship in the pews with a busy bag, which can be found in the Narthex. Questions and collaborative learning are highly encouraged.

Note Concerning Confirmation

Youth considering confirmation should notify Pastor Jessica so that you can plan to meet with her during the year to discuss its meaning.  To be eligible for confirmation, you’ll be expected to maintain regular attendance throughout the year, including the church and youth events.  Our next confirmation class will be during the 2021-2022 program year.
