Children:
Children's Chapel
We invite young children to start their worship time in Children’s Chapel and join their family in the nave for the celebration of Holy Communion. There are two separate children chapels to reach children on a level appropriate to their age. The main focus of Children’s Chapel is hearing the Word. The chapel leaders engage children in storytelling, drama and music.
On a rotation basis, the clergy visit the chapels to spend some time with the children. This allows each child to get to know our clergy and learn their role in the church. This informal visit is always a highlight for the children.
The older children, kindergarten through third grade, meet upstairs in our Children’s Chapel. The younger children, ages 3 and 4, remain downstairs in the preschool rooms for the Little Children’s Chapel service.
All children are encouraged to arrive before 9 a.m. in order for parents to arrive on time to church. Chapel leaders bring the children to the nave during the hymn before the Holy Communion begins. Parents are asked to take seat-saver cardswith them into the nave so they can reserve a seat for their children when then arrive from Children’s Chapel.
