Children's Ministry
Our goal at St. Francis is to create a safe and nurturing environment for each child entrusted to our care. We strive to create curriculum, space and opportunities for children to discover/become confident in the Holy One’s love and care for them, grow in their gifts, explore their spirituality and become committed to living a life of social justice.
The work we do and the time we spend with children are some of the most important investments we can ever make. We believe that the times of learning, sharing, and serving others together are transformative for both children and teachers.
While we have developed a curriculum that involves children exploring core values, biblical stories, creation and stewardship, social justice and much more.
Throughout the year there are different events planned for the children and families to enjoy. We have a parents night out around Valentine’s Day, a church wide Easter Egg hunt, our Howlapalooza around Halloween time, a special Christmas Eve service put on by the children and more!
Sunday School
9:00 am – Children participate in worship in the Center until after
Children’s Time (about 9:15)
9:15 am - Room 42
8:30 am- 12 pm- Child Care Services in room 50.
This is our “nursery” for infants through age 7.
Children MUST be picked up in their classroom.
If your child would feel more comfortable with your walking to Sunday school with her or him (especially if it is your first Sunday at St. Francis), we encourage you to do just that.
Visitor cards for children are in the chair backs in the worship center. It is extremely helpful to us if each visiting child brings a completed card to Sunday school. This at least gives us child’s name, parent’s (significant adult) name and any known allergies. Registration forms will also be available in each classroom.
