Christian Education Ministry Opportunities

Children's Chapel:  The Children's Chapel is a separate time of worship for children ages four through grade five and takes place during a portion of the 10:00 a.m. service.  A typical chapel service will include a variety of music, reading and discussion of the day's gospel lesson, a prayer time, and closing.  Volunteers are welcome each week to help. 

Journey to Adulthood:  This is our program for pre-teens and teenagers.  When fully running, there are classes for three age groups:  sixth and seventh graders (Rite-13), eighth and ninth graders (J2A) and tenth through twelfth graders (YAC).  Teams of four adults per class lead these groups.  

Nursery Volunteers:  Parents/parishioners help watch children under age three in the nursery during the 10:00 a.m. service.  They are teamed with a paid staff person each week.  (Volunteers and children go to church at the exchange of the Peace, midway through the service and prior to Communion.) 

Sunday School Teachers:  Teachers work together in teams of three or four to teach children in grades Pre-K to five.  There is an easy-to-follow curriculum that leads teachers through the lesson and gives multiple options for in-class activities each week.   The schedule is flexible and worked out among those on each teaching team. 

 Summer Bible School:  Rather than running a one or two week vacation Bible school, our summer program happens during the first part of our Sunday service.  Each summer brings a new and exciting theme.
