While we love to have children in church, sometimes they need space to wiggle, make noise, and pray for macaroni and cheese and their pets. At the 10:15 am service, after the Children’s Sermon children are invited to leave to have their own church experience.

In Children's Chapel we do the same things that adults are doing in church, but at a developmentally appropriate level for children. We will talk about the Gospel, pray our own Creed or statement of beliefs. Prayers of the People give us a chance to pray for families, teachers, pets, friends, people we find it hard to be friends with, and even our favorite foods.

We end our time with a confession of sins and asking God to help us to do better when we don’t do everything we’re supposed to. We re-join our families at the Peace.

Fun for all ages! Kids can travel from trunk-to-trunk trick-or-treating while adults meet, greet, mix, and mingle! A simple dinner of grilled hotdogs and chips will be provided at 5:00 pm, followed by Trunk or Treat at 5:30. We’ll finish our time with prizes for the best trunks. 

If you would like to participate with your trunk or help with grilling and a few other tasks, please sign up to volunteer HERE. This will be a gathering for the whole parish and for all ages plus a fun opportunity to engage with the community.

Through biblical storytelling, STEAM exploration, acting, and more, children will have the opportunity to dive deeper into scripture and grow in their understanding of God’s story and their place in it. Register HERE for this unforgettable journey of faith, creativity, and discovery. The retreat is open to kindergartners through 5th graders. Cost: $25 per child (with a family maximum of $75).
