Family Ministries

 
We are excited to have numerous opportunities for children and their families to grow in Christ. Below are listed several events and activities that are available to families of our church body and our community.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Just for Kids!

 
Children's Bulletins and Worship Bags: Children's Bulletins and Worship Bags are available for children during both worship services. The fun Children's Bulletins provide scripture based activities and puzzles. The Worship Bags are filled with Bible coloring books, story books, worship buddies and crayons. Please take advantage of both opportunities for your children to be engaged in Christ.
 
 
Children's Church: Following the Children's Message in both worship services, children aged 3 years to 5th grade are invited to attend Children's Church. The children engage in a meaningful lesson and activity that match the Children's Message. These hands-on activities teach children about Jesus, faith, love and teamwork.
 
 
Cherub Choir: Ages 3 - 6. The children sing weekly during Sunday School and perform regularly throughout the year.
 
 
Children's Sunday School - Check out the Education page for more information on Children's Sunday School opportunities. 
 
 
Nursery -  Attention Parents! We would love to have your little ones join us in the nursery on Sundays! Hours are 8:15AM - 12:15PM every Sunday. We have plenty of toys and activities to keep your little one entertained. So if you have someone between the ages of infant and 5 years old and you would like to share them with us on Sunday mornings we would love to have them. The nursery is staffed according to FAUMC's Child Protection Policy's adult/child ratio. The nursery staff is CPR and First Aid certified. Hope to see you Sunday!
