Children's Ministries on Fall Kick Off Sunday
Those who are participating in Godly Play and Bible Live, on Sunday, September 11th, please visit the CYF Board in the rotunda to find your name tag hanging for your child and have them wear it. After the children's message, they will be going to their room to meet their guides and have a brief introduction. Then your children will return to you in the worship space prior to the end of worship. Please return their nametags to the hanging place in the rotunda following worship. Parents/guardians, you are welcome to join your children for that time but it is not required.
