CHRISTMAS PAGEANT READ-THROUGH AFTER SERVICE
There will be a “read through” of the 2018 Christmas Pageant after Church in the Disciples Room. If you have signed up and have “written lines” in it – please attend; this practice run will not take long.

“Children are a blessing and a gift from the Lord.” – Psalm 127:3 (CEV – Contemporary English Version).

Nursery care with Tina is available for infants and children (up to 4 years*) during the 10:30 AM morning service. The Nursery is located in the Education Building.
For campus locations, please see Directions and Campus Map.
NEW STUDENTS – FIRST VISIT
Hello Parents and Guardians – if this is your student’s first time with us, please arrive a few minutes early to register your child.
We follow safe church practices, so its important that we know who’s in attendance, have parents(s) or guardian(s) check children in-and-out, and provide us us with any important details including contact info in the event of an emergency. Teachers are happy to help 🙂
Education building doors are locked 10 minutes after church service begins for added security…so give yourself a little extra time this first day. Teachers will be available to offer assistance to parents and children with registration, questions or any special needs – just introduce yourself and they’ll take it from there. Thanks so much and we look forward to meeting you!
MARK YOUR CALENDARS
The annual Christmas Pageant will be held on December 16th. Sign-ups are still available on the back table located in the Narthex (at the back of the church sanctuary).
