For Our Children
People of all ages are welcome in our worship services!
-
Church School. During the 10am service during the school year, children ages 4-12 are invited to join our Church School program. Church School meets during the first 35 minutes of the 10am service, and children return to their families for Communion. Our program incorporates lessons from the Montessori-based Godly Play curriculum, as well as our “Faith in Action” series that has students engage with service and outreach ministries of St. Andrew’s. Our middle school youth meet for conversation once a month, as well as participating in parish outreach activities.
-
Open Play Spaces. For children who do not attend Church School, we have a play space available on the side of the sanctuary. Additionally, caregivers are welcome to take their smaller children upstairs to our nursery and entertain them with the toys available there. Over the summer, we have pew bags for kids to follow along at their own level with activities connected to the themes for the day.
-
Children’s Liturgy. During the first Sunday of every month, children will remain with their families and participate in the Children’s Liturgy during the 10am service.
-
Middle School Youth. Grades 6-8 meet monthly for conversation and community-kickoff on Sept. 27 at 4pm.
Our Church School operates September to June during the 10am Service. Contact the Church Office for more information.
Prayer and Study
