Coming in 2015

Here are some of the things we have planned for kids in 2015:
  • Our midweek program for parents and kids, The Harbor, returns January 28. Parents, if you have not checked out this program, we invite you to take a look. The program runs 6-7:30 on Wednesday nights for six weeks (we do not meet Ash Wednesday, February 18, so the program goes until March 11). 90-minute fun-filled program for kids, where they make friends, learn new skills, and discover more about God in our everyday lives. At the same time, parents can (but don't have to) drop in to one of the following classes: Boundaries with Kids, Essentials of Marriage: Higher Love, Single & Parenting (single moms), Mother-Daughter class (for girls 9+), and Will Our Kids Have Faith? - a groupthink on Millenials and the church. Most classes are free or come with a small materials fee. The kids program is always free. A meal for families is available starting at 5:15 (pre- registration required). Sign up for The Harbor here.
  • During Easter Week, our family-style Seder meal, "The Messiah in the Passover", returns! This is a wonderful, hands-on learning activity for the whole family, as we explore together the Jewish roots of the Christian faith and how the Messiah was the fulfillment of prophecy.
  • "What's The Story?", a six-week class for parents & kids 4th grade & up on understanding the Bible's Big Story, will be offered this spring once the chapel opens, and again in the fall. Stay tuned for more info! The follow-up class, "What's This Book?" on understanding the composition of the Bible and how to read it, will be offered this fall.
  • KidsGames 2015: "You Are A Difference Maker". Again this year, two weeks to choose from - June 22-26 and July 6-10.
  • 4th-6th Grade Summer Camp
Happy New Year and see you in 2015.
