Childrens’ Sunday School at 10 am

Step 1.  Sign in your preschool child(ren) downstairs and your older children at the lobby sign in table. 

Step 2. NEW!  Preschool kids can begin downstairs.  Kids grades 1-5 start with their parents in the sanctuary, then head down to Sunday School after the singing.

Step 3.  Sign out your child (Grades 1-5 only) from the gym directly after the service. Please promptly sign out your preschoolers downstairs. This is in accordance with our Plan to Protect policy.
