CHILDREN'S MINISTRIES

 We treasure our Children here at LCUMC. We offer many ministries to enrich their spirit and help them grow roots that will keep them grounded in God's love and truth for all of their days. Also, we celebrate the gift of families by offering events and studies that encourage a strong family bond.

Look around our church and our various ministries and you will see for yourself how much Children and families are welcomed here!

WORSHIP- We encourage families to worship together. We provide worship activities for our children to do during worship services including a children's bulletin, books and crayons.  We have a special "children's moment" during all of our services, which brings that day's message to the children in ways that they too will understand. Also,on the 2nd,3rd and 4th Sunday of each month,during our 11:00 services we offer a Children's Church after the children's moment, this is for children 4 years-2nd grade.

SUNDAY SCHOOL- is 9:45 am-10:35 and the ages include 2yrs-5th grade. Each grade level has their own class and regular teachers that they get to know and love throughout the year. Sunday school includes a planned lesson with crafts and games, also literature/activity sheets to take home. We strive to make Sunday School a highlight of your child's week!

CONFIRMATION- We offer a special confirmation program for our 5th graders. This takes place in the spring, with lessons taught by our Pastors, Children and Youth director. There are special field trips planned, mission projects and a retreat. The Sunday of Confirmation, there is a special breakfast for the confirmands, their families and friends in faith. Also, there is a wonderful Confirmation Service, which is May 17th, 2009 @ 11:00am
