<p>Nursery: staffed Nursery care for children five and under is available for every Sunday worship service, and for many special worship services at other times as well. We prioritize providing a safe space for the children to be themselves. The kids love Miss Debbie, and she always has fun and faith-filled activities for them!

This is a fun, interactive class that includes baking the bread they will use for Communion the following Sunday! The pastor works with each family to determine the most appropriate age for beginning to receive communion, but children typically participate in this one-session class around the time they begin to read and write. Contact Pastor Matt for more information. </p>
