As we begin a new school year, children become excited at church, too, as they are promoted to new Bible study groups. This newsletter is to inform you of all the activities available for children ages preschool through fifth grade beginning in September. If you have any questions, please contact Bonnie Sohn at 737-2171 or bcsohn57@yahoo.com.
Sunday Morning Activities
1) Sunday School Bible Study is held from 9:30–10:15 a.m. with classes for babies through fifth graders.
2) Extended Session Care for preschoolers is held during both the 8:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. services (if adult volunteers are available). It is held in the preschool department.
3) Worship Quest for children in 4th & 5th grades is held on the first Sunday of each month during the 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. services. Children begin in the worship service with their parents and are then escorted to the choir room located in the children’s department where they may be picked up following the service.
4) JR Church for children in grades 1st, 2nd, & 3rd is held on the third and fourth Sundays of each month during the 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. services. Children begin in the worship service with their parents and are then escorted to the choir room located in the children’s department where they may be picked up following the service.
5) RAs and GAs for children in grades 1st-5th is held on the second Sundays of each month during the 10:30 a.m. service. The children focus on missions and serving others. The girls meet in the GA room in the children’s department; the boys meet in the basement in the RA room.
**Note: All preschoolers need to check in for a security wristband before entering their classes. All children should be picked up by an adult from their classes in the children’s department unless other arrangements have been made.
Wednesday Evening Activities
Our Wednesday evening activities will begin on September 15th with dinner in the Bosher-Gray Building from 5:30 to 6:25 p.m. In order that parents may attend discipleship class offerings and other meetings, leaving the dinner between 6:20 — 6:25 p.m. will enable you to take your child to the bathroom and get water before escorting him/her to his/her class. Parents will need to sign their child in as well as let the teacher know which class they will be attending in case of an emergency. The following schedule is offered for children ages babies through fifth graders.
Babies, Ones, and Twos: Child care is provided in the PS Department from 6:25 – 7:30 p.m.
