Children in worship
We all worship together as a community

ALL other sundays
Godly Play Worship (Preschool – 1st Grade)
Offered during the 10:00 am service. This is Christian Education, rooted in ancient storytelling while adopting active Montessori pedagogy.
Kids’ Community Worship (Preschool – 5th Grade)
Offered during the 10:00 am service. Kids explore worship themes, and develop skills to help them participate and understand worship in a child-friendly setting. Ubuntu’s (or older shepherds) develop leadership & service skills by partnering & modelling for our youngest children.
