      <image:caption>Children's Church 8:45 AM &amp; 11 AM Children's Church 8:45 AM &amp; 11 AM Children grades K-2nd learn through Godly play in centers that expand on the current Sunday school theme. We believe that it is important for children to participate in congregational worship. Please have your K-2nd grader attend worship with you and transition to children's church at the given time. Sunday School at 10 AM Children in preschool through 5th grade experience a time of worship in a large group setting, then break up into smaller grade level groups for Bible based lessons that they can apply throughout their week. Nursery available 9 AM to noon. Children ages 6 weeks to preschool are welcomed in our nursery by professional caregivers. Please leave your diaper bag stocked with diapers and a bottle if needed. Snacks will be provided for children who are eating solid foods. Nursing mothers are also welcome to utilize the nursery or Children's Ministry staff office for nursing as needed. Please check your child in at the "Children's and Youth" entrance</image:caption>
