Blessing of the Backpacks

Join in celebrating children and youth all over the world at our 10:00 a.m. worship service on Sunday, August 21.

Children will provide the music for the service and Pastor John Smoke will give a blessing of the backpacks to get the new school year off to a great start. Children of all ages are asked to bring their backpacks to church for the blessing.

Sunday School and Nursery Care

There will be no Sunday School this week so that families may worship together for Children's Sabbath Sunday/Backpack Blessing.

Care for children under age 3 will be provided in the first-floor nursery during worship.

Children and Youth Choir Meet & Greet

Stop by the Children and Youth Choir Meet and Greet in the North/back parking lot this Sunday following the 10:00 a.m. service until 12:30 p.m.

All children and youth from grades 4 through 12 and their parents are welcome. Meet Nick Loos, who is our new Connection and Chorister Choirs director, and the Chapel Choir director. Choir registration begins on Wednesday, September 14 so this is a great time to learn more about choir from Nick and Pastor John!
