Starting this Sunday, November 12, we will be offering a new program called Playful Worship for young children during the 10:30 a.m. service!
Here is a brief summary of the details, followed by a short explanation.
What: Playful Worship
Who: Children ages PreK(4) - 3rd Grade
Where: Thomas Room (next to the Kitchen) - need help finding this space? Ask one of the Ushers for help.
When: 10:20 a.m. until approximately 11 a.m. (or during the announcements).
Alex Englert, a parent in our parish with two young, energetic children, has offered to lead this program each week. This is an opportunity for children from PreK(4) through 3rd grade to engage in worship by practicing a bit of stillness, and plenty of movement.
Alex will lead prayer, activities, and games for the kids during the first half of the 10:30 a.m. service. Then, he will bring the kids to rejoin the main service during the announcements, so that families can partake of the Eucharist together.
In order to help this program succeed, we need parental volunteers! If your child will participate in this program, please sign up to help with supervision at least twice between now and the end of May 2024. Use the following LINK.
Families can bring their children to the Thomas Room between 10:20 and 10:30 for drop-off. Children must be in PreK (4 year old) and be fully independent in the bathroom.
Play clothes and outdoor layers encouraged!
