Nursery (9:00-10:00 in the Lobby Nursery) is a time for babies and
toddlers to listen to encouraging biblically-based songs, play with toys,
and do simple arts 'n crafts while their caregivers attend service. Cur-
rently, this program is only offered for the 1st Service
Wow Junior Church (9:30-10:00 in the Capernaum Room) will
feature Theophilus the Faith Retriever as our lead puppet teaching chil-
dren about ways to follow God's heart in our own unique ways! This
time may also feature videos of children from across the US sharing
stories applicable to the lesson, discussions, and prayer. Note that the
program is geared toward preschool and younger elementary students,
who may not understand the traditional message in the worship ser-
vice. Suggested ages for joining Wow Junior Church are 4-9 years old.
Friends Together Fellowship (10:00-10:10) in the
Jerusalem Room/ Main Preschool Room) is a time for children to
grab a bit to eat and catch up with their young friends about their
week. (This fellowship time occurs in conjunction to traditional fel-
lowship/refreshment time in the church lobby so that adults may fel-
lowship with friends while their children do the same.) Note that the
Fellowship Team will supply a small portion of the same food as on
the traditional fellowship lobby table. Children's Ministry will also pro-
vide some fruits or veggies and water. If you have preferences or
guidelines for your child's selections, please let Nancy Walsh know
and she'll mark it.
Sunday School Worship Time (10:10-10:30 in Jerusalem Room/
Main Preschool Room) will feature all ages (Preschool-5th grade) dis-
cussing church happenings/events, singing songs, learning memory Bi-
ble verses, sharing the Lord's Prayer, saying the Doxology, and taking
offering. The focus of this time is on worshiping and praising
God! Our aim is to help the children understand the process of the
worship service and why these elements glorify God.
• Sunday School Education Time (10:30-11:00 in Downstairs
Classrooms By Age Group) will feature prayer and testimony time - a
time to share how Jesus helped you this week and thank Him or ask for
additional support! It also features bible lesson application through
hands-on activities, experiments, crafts, as well as both low-energy and
high-energy games! The focus of this time is on Christian Education
(as with Adult Sunday School) - understanding that a key part of know-
ing God means talking to Him (prayer), having Him talk to us (the
Word) and listening (having God's special helper the Holy Spirit guide
us).
