Sunday School, Childcare and Children’s Music at Montview PAUSED Through January 30
We have enjoyed a wonderful few months of Sunday School, Childcare and Children’s Music on our Montview playground. Being able to continue outdoors through December was pure gift. As the weather changes now and the Covid virus is surging, the Montview staff has decided to pause all programs in the building except worship. This includes Sunday School, Childcare and Children’s Music through January 30. We will continue to evaluate and communicate our decisions!
