The
Congregational Church
welcomes kids and their families!

ministries of The Congregational Church is the spiritual formation of our
children and our families. We seek to provide nurturing programs and experiences
allowing families to grow in God’s spirit together and providing children with
opportunities to experience God and God’s love through community relationships
and active, engaging Bible teaching and worship.

About our Church School
Our Church School curriculum for 2 year-olds
through fourth grade is active, experiential and Bible story-based. Fifth and sixth grades rotate
through studies of the Beatitudes, the Ten
Commandments, the life of Jesus, and the characteristics of God. Seventh and
eighth grades discuss topics such as the big questions of faith and an
understanding of other religions.
On the first Sunday of each month, our Church School
classes are involved in Children’s Chapel, where they learn to experience God
and God’s spirit through worship activities.
