A prayer for our parish:
Almighty and ever living God, ruler of all things in heaven and earth, hear our prayers for this parish family. Strengthen the faithful, arouse the careless, and restore the penitent. Grant us all things necessary for our common life, and bring us all to be of one heart and mind within your holy Church; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Young People's Ministries for 2009-2010

Nursery

We provide childcare from 9:15 a.m. - 11:45 a.m. on Sunday mornings and for other major parish events. This childcare will include playtime and activities which will teach and express our Christian faith. Please contact the Church office to see if childcare will be available for a specific event or program.

Godly Play (ages 4-7), 9:15 a.m. - 11:15 a.m.

This Montessori-based program seeks to instill in our young people a love for the stories of our faith. Built upon an understanding that children guide their own formation, we create an environment where they are invited to enter our Christian stories, ask questions, and make the stories their own.

'Tween Time (ages 8-10), 9:15 a.m. - 11:15 a.m.

Using the Godly Play curriculum as a base, this group will bring music and art into the exploration of Christian story.

Rite 13 (ages 11-15), 9:15 a.m. - 10:15 a.m.

This portion of our new Journey to Adulthood program seeks to honor the transition from childhood into adulthood within the context of the Christian Community.

Other Youth Ministries

In addition to the above classes, our Choristers and Jr. Acolytes will continue their wonderful ministries among us.
