SUNDAYS
NURSERY/TODDLERS: The Nursery and toddlers are watched over by our long standing nursey workers who show the love of God through their patience with and care of each child. Our children are truly a gift from God and in order to ensure their safety as well as to provide our parents comfort when they leave their child, our nursery is equipped with a silent paging system. We also ask that parents sign their children in and out.

The second half of the year, is Confirmation Class where our students are paired with an adult mentor for 14 weeks to grow in their faith, develop spiritual practices, write their own faith statement and then become members of this congregation.
