01
Stories that invite wonder
Biblical stories are shared in ways that encourage imagination, conversation, and growing understanding.
Children are part of church life
Wonder and Worship
Children are welcomed into worship through stories, questions, participation, and age-appropriate activities during the service.
Make your family’s first Sunday simpler
Review the visit guide or send a question before you arrive. The church can help with practical details and accommodation needs.
Faith with imagination
Children can listen, wonder, ask, and participate
Wonder and Worship gives children a meaningful way to engage scripture and faith during the Worship Service.
Stories and activities are designed to invite curiosity rather than require children to sit silently or already understand church language.
Children also belong in the wider worshiping community through shared moments, questions, music, prayer, and the welcome of the congregation.
A welcoming approach for children
Children are welcomed into worship through stories, questions, participation, and age-appropriate activities during the service.
02
Active participation
Age-appropriate activities give children another way to explore the themes of worship.
03
Part of the congregation
Children are welcomed as participants in church life, not treated as an interruption to it.
04
Support for families
Parents and caregivers can contact the church before Sunday with questions or accommodation needs.
A place to grow
Welcoming children within the whole worshiping community
The goal is not a perfect first Sunday. The goal is to help children and their caregivers experience welcome, curiosity, and room to participate.
During worship
Children’s moments and shared participation
Children encounter stories, questions, and invitations to participate as part of the congregation’s Sunday worship.
Before you arrive
Ask what would help your family
If mobility, sensory, seating, communication, or another accommodation would make Sunday easier, contact the church so leaders can plan with you.
