We need your help! Sign up here to lead Junior Church! When we baptize children, we make promises together to lead, guide, nurture, and teach the faith to children as they grow up. Whether you have children in this age group or not, you can answer the call to help live out those promises of commitment to the children of our church.  As a leader, you are helping to guide our Kindergarten through 2nd graders in their own special time together after the Children's Message in the 11:00 worship service. An easy to lead curriculum is already in place and supplies for the lessons are ready to go.  You will receive an email the week you are signed up to lead with the curriculum lesson for that week. In keeping with our Child and Youth Protection Policy, we need to have two adults present. Thank you for sharing in this important ministry of the church and supporting our children.

On February 22nd, we will be preparing for season of Lent by hosting a Lenten workshop. We will complete the pottery projects that were started last week as well as engaging in activities and prayer stations so that we may each select a personalized spiritual discipline designed to carry us all through the Lenten season.  Please note that Peter Bynum's Deuteronomy Study will also meet. 

  Please remember to make your reservations by noon Monday.   Menu: pork tenderloin, cheesy vegetables, rice, salad, dessert.  Kids table:  corn dogs, carrot sticks, applesauce.
