CHILDREN'S MESSAGE
You can listen to a weekly Children’s Message
offered by members of our Faith Formation Journey team!
Mrs. Koster and Mrs. Orban miss seeing the kids in church on Sunday mornings and want to bring church to the kids!
Every other week children 4 years-old through 3rd grade will receive a Sunday School Home Edition newsletter in the mail. It will include a Bible-based lesson and related craft as well as fun trivia, jokes, and a prayer.

They are thrilled to be able to reach out to the children this way. Please contact the church office if your child has not received a Sunday School Home edition package and would like to.
In case you missed it!
