WHO'S INVOLVED?
Every Sunday morning our faithful volunteers provide a fun, Bible based class experience for kids from birth through fifth grade where they can learn about Jesus and connect with each other.
Our volunteers are the heartbeat of our ministry. Every volunteer who serves in the Children's Ministry has completed a background check and is committed to helping the kids grow in their Christian Faith.
Is God placing Children's Ministry on your heart?
There are so many ways to be involved in making this wonderful Faith Building Community come to life. There are opportunities to be in the classroom, provide support for the teachers, help with events, organize and tidy, or greet families and help them find their way to the Sunday School Rooms. We would love for you to join us!! For questions, email Megan at children@firstchurch.org.
Christmas Pageant & Cookie Reception
It's that time of year again! This year's Christmas Pageant will be held on Sunday, December 7th at 3:00 PM in the Meetinghouse. Sign your child up or volunteer yourself to help bring this great Christian story to life! We will have one practice on Sunday, November 23rd from 11:30 AM-1:00 PM. This rehearsal will begin in the Fireside Room with Pizza and Costumes. We will then move up to The Meetinghouse to rehearse the pageant. Participants are asked to be at church by 2:00 PM on Sunday, December 7th for a final run-through and costuming. All in attendance and/or participating are invited to bring a dozen cookies to share for the Cookie & Cocoa Reception.
Drop Off Movie Afternoon
On Saturday, December 13th from 3:30-6:30 PM, we will be hosting a Drop Off Movie Afternoon! Have a fun afternoon to yourself to shop, prep or simply relax and leave the childcare to us! We will complete a craft, enjoy a pizza dinner together and watch a fun Christmas Movie (Rated G). This is open to children ages 3+. The cost is $20 for your first child and $10 for each additional child, per family. Reach out to Megan Ettlinger at children@firstchurch.org with questions or if you’d like to volunteer to help with this fun event.
