Sundays for children and youth
Children are encouraged to join their families in the sanctuary where they are welcome to help ring the building’s bell. After the first 15-20 minutes of the service, they have the option of joining the religious exploration leader in the adjoining hall for activities and age-appropriate religious exploration. Childcare is also available for the very young. Of course, all are welcome to remain in the sanctuary for the entire service.
