DRIVE-IN MOVIE FOR KIDS
Saturday, December 6 | 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Each child will get to make a “car”, enjoy a popcorn bar, and watch a Christmas movie. They'll most likely sit in their car to watch the movie so if they'd like to get cozy, they can wear PJs, bring blankets and pillows. Parents welcome but not required. RSVP below.

Acolytes & Crucifiers
4th-8th Graders
Worship is important for all God’s children, and all should be involved in some way. We want to be intentional about offering a place specifically for 4th-8th graders to lead our worship as acolytes, typically September through May. Acolytes are involved throughout the service – lighting altar candles, receiving the offering, and assisting with communion. 6th graders may also serve as crucifers. We will have our next training opportunity in the fall of 2025. For questions, individual training, or more information about scheduling, contact Boo McCready.
