We believe that early spiritual formation is critical for all children. Our Sunday School program, J.A.M. and VBS are so important for all our children. Our teachers take care to get to know the children and to help them understand the love of God in each and every class.
Nursery: Our nursery is staffed by volunteers who lovingly care for our youngest learners. Parents are welcome to bring their children and return to worship or stay with the children. There is a speaker in the nursery and we are anticipating a TV for streaming the service at 11:00 in the nursery.
Supplies include a small crib, rockers, toys, diapers and wipes.

CHILDREN’S CHURCH
Children’s Church is offered during the 11:00 AM service on Sundays for children ages 4 – 4th grade. After “Time with the Children” the kids leave the sanctuary and rejoin their parents before the end of the service. Most often the songs, crafts and lessons are built around a biblical theme or the Scripture passage for that Sunday’s service. Children age 10 and older are asked to stay with their families in the sanctuary for the worship service.
For more information about Children’s Church please call Pastor Louise at 412-331-2863.
During the Fall Fellowship and Lenten dinner/worship time, children ages Preschool – Grade 4 are invited to join Amy Savatt and Sheila Konn for a midweek lesson planned just for them. Bible-centered and fun-focused, it’s sure to bring smiles and fun! Children eat first at the 5:30 dinner, then head downstairs for J.A.M. from 6:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
