Childcare is available for infants and toddlers
in the nursery during worship.

Nurture Hour begins ten minutes after the end of worship.

      Adult classes are combined during the summer and meet in the meetingroom. Today, the adult nurture class led by Clare Krabill will be viewing and discussing a film titled Breathe by Rob Bell. With everything that we’ve got going on every day, how many of us ever think about our breathing, about the meaning of breathing? Yet, for thousand of years, people have understood that our physical breath is a picture of deeper spiritual reality.

Children from preschool through fifth grade go directly to their classrooms after worship for a snack.

¨      Infants and Toddlers meet in “Cherub Corner.”

¨      Preschool (2 and 3 year-olds) meet in “Joyful.”

¨      Primary (4 and 5 year-olds) meet in “Peace.”

¨      Middler (grades 1-5) meets in “Forgiveness.”

Youth:

The JYF (grades 6-8) and MYF (grades 9-12) meet in their classrooms off of Jubilee Hall.
