Childrens Choir
Children in Kindergarten through 6th grade are invited to join our two Childrens Choirs, The Cherubic Choir for K-2nd graders and The Grace Notes Choir for 3rd-6th graders. These choirs practice once a week on Sunday morning and participate in Sunday morning worship services several times a year. Some years, these choirs also prepare a Christmas Program for the congregation. Their time together is a mix of musical education and spiritual formation through music.
Childrens Club
Children in Kindergarten through 6th Grade are invited to come out on Sunday evenings to be a part of our Childrens Club ministry during Grace Community Nights. This time together provides an additional weekly opportunity for Children to gather together with friends, build meaningful relationships with adults in the congregation, and learn more about Gods word. Each night begins with a Bible story that is then reinforced throughout the night with participatory activities. We use Groups FW Friends curriculum for these gatherings that begin each fall and wrap up in the spring. For more details about the schedule, please refer to our church calendar.

Community VBS

Childrens Sunday School
Children of all ages are invited to participate in age appropriate Christian Education through our Sunday School program. Classes begin each Sunday morning at 9:15am and run to 10:15am (Check the home page for variations in summer schedule). We offer classes for children 18 months through High School Youth using the Gather Round Curriculum. For more information about the Gather Round Curriculum, please take a moment to visit their web page at http://www.gatherround.org .
Pep Pals
Children in 4th through 6th grade are encouraged to be a part of our mentoring program, Pep Pals. Each child is paired with an adult from the congregation who will serve as their mentor. During these three years, the child and adult do various activities together to learn to know each other and build a meaningful relationship. In many cases, this is a relationship that continues after their 6th grade year into high school and beyond. A childs mentor becomes an additional link to the congregation and a person who is available for additional support and nurture.
Childrens Story
Every Sunday, an important part of our worship service is the Childrens Story. This is a time in which the children are invited to come up to the front to hear a message that is geared to them.
