Attention, Kids Ministry Parents

I hope your family has enjoyed morning worship together. Getting to be with parents during times like this are huge for the spiritual development of children. Here are a few reminders concerning our summer family worship:

We realize at times parents of families with children in kids ministry are serving elsewhere during morning worship. Your kids are always welcome to sit with my family during services in which you are volunteering. We hang out on the second middle pew on the organ side.

We will have a treasure box filled with candy at the front of the sanctuary at the conclusion of the service. Any child who has filled out a sermon note sheet will be able to choose an item from the box.

While we love to see families worship together, we are excited about the return of Worship KidStyle. On August 12, Worship KidStyle will resume. More information to come.

–Brad Strom, Minister to Kids
