Kids’ Church / Sunday School / Confirmation

Contact Stephanie Liotti to find out more

Kids' Church, designed for children in kindergarten through fifth grade, will feature worship
songs, prayer, a monthly memory verse, weekly Bible stories and lessons, the Lord's Prayer, and an offering.​

For children in preschool, a weekly Bible story time will be available beginning at 9:30 a.m., while our older students attend Kids’ Church. Immediately following Kids' Church, (around 10:00 a.m.) our Sunday School will provide a small group setting where children, including our preschoolers, can engage in follow-up activities and crafts to reinforce the week's lesson.

Confirmation classes are for students in grades 6-8. Confirmation classes allow students to explore their faith as they learn about Christ and our Lutheran beliefs. Confirmation helps prepare students to affirm their baptisms as they enter high school. Students will meet at 9:30 a.m. on the first 3 Sundays of every month. On the fourth Sunday they will worship together at the Gathering Service.
