Your child’s safety is important to us. Kids in 2nd grade and younger are checked in and out of Nursery and Sunday School using an online software, and every adult volunteer serving with children and youth has been interviewed and vetted. This process includes the completion of both a CORI Check (Massachusetts Criminal Background Check) and a National Background Check. Please contact Rebecca Lowry if you’d like to review a copy of our Safe Church Child and Youth Protection Policy. 

• Available during Adult Sunday School I 9-10 AM

• Available during the Worship Service I 10:15 AM
  

Parent Room - If your child is not ready to separate, we offer a parent/family room with toys and a livestream of the worship service. We ask that children please remain supervised by a parent or guardian while using this room.

Nursing/Feeding Room - A quieter, private Nursing/Feeding Women’s room is located across from the KiDS desk. Our livestream is available there as well.

We invite children of all ages to remain in the sanctuary during the worship service for as long as you are comfortable. Our family-friendly church body spans generations, and we delight in the presence (and sounds!) of even our littlest worshippers. We also understand that care-takers can benefit from childcare assistance and places for little ones to roam. We welcome you to utilize these spaces in the way that works best for your family.

Teach Us To Worship 

Teach Us To Worship is a PCA Committee on Discipleship Ministries curriculum that aspires to give children a sense of belonging and connectedness during our worship services. Through the worship tools below, we hope to help kids better understand both the WHAT and the WHY of our corporate (church gathered) worship practices and to know that, not only are they the future of the church, they ARE the church - right here, right now!

• Projected Worship Signs - Keep an eye out for these visual cues. We want kids (and adults) to know what is happening and what to expect next. 

• TUTW Worship Bulletin - An additional, child-focused, bulletin designed to help keep kids engaged during worship. The worship symbols in the bulletin correspond to the signs projected throughout the service. 

• KiDS sermon breakout lesson - We offer a time of learning during the sermon for kids ages 4 & up. During this optional sermon break-out lesson, we follow a yearlong curriculum to explore the meaning and importance of each worship element, helping kids to understand and engage more fully in corporate worship and to strengthen the foundation for a lifelong faith. Children are signed in by a parent during the song preceding the sermon and released back to families when the sermon is finished. 

We strive to assist parents and guardians in equipping children of all ages and abilities to become active worshippers and followers of Jesus! For more family resources on better understanding the elements of worship and how to explain them to your child or for help finding other family discipleship materials, please email Rebecca.
