Weekday Meetups & Special Events


Children in grades 1–3 are invited to participate in Working on Worship (WOW), a monthly program during the 11 am worship service designed to help young worshippers engage more meaningfully in our worship services. On second Sundays, children will follow the acolyte out of worship for a 30–45 minute session of hands-on learning. Through play, exploration, and practice, children will learn about baptism and communion, how to follow our liturgy, use their Bibles and hymnals, and participate more fully in the rhythms of our services, equipping young worshippers with the tools and understanding they need to connect with God alongside their families in worship.
