Godly Play

Children

Childcare is offered on Sunday mornings for children 6 weeks until 4 years beginning at 8:45 (10:15 during the summer schedule) in the Children's Center in the Parish Hall.

Godly Play is a Montessori approach to teaching Bible stories, the Sacraments, and sacred time to children.  It utilizes a discovery method of teaching with well-designed, developmentally appropriate story-telling materials in a child-scale classroom.  The goal is that children come to know God – not just about God—and prepare to participate more fully in parish worship and service as they grow older. 

         Pre-K & K Godly Play meets upstairs in Holzhalb Hall, Godly Play room that uses the stairs right in front of the nursery in the foyer of the building

         1st & 2nd Grade Godly Play meets upstairs in Holzhalb Hall, Godly Play room that uses the stairs off of the Commons Room deck (go through Commons Room and out the door on right side of room, door is on right at the top of the steps)

         3rd – 5th Grade Godly Play meets in the raised 2 level school building across the playground on the top floor, street side end room

 Children’s Service of the Word is offered for children ages 3-6 during a portion of the 9:00 a.m. Sunday Services. Children who choose to participate are led out of the church before the Gospel and return during the exchange of the Peace.
