Good news! Beginning in the new year during worship, Neeley or Erin will begin taking your children downstairs to the nursery after Wondering with God's Children (only if your children are planning to go to the nursery). This is to help you stay in worship and us get them to the nursery safely. We will sign in your children in the nursery so you can sign them out when you pick them up! As always, children are always welcome to wiggle and giggle in the pews!

Join us in welcoming our new nursery workers as they begin their calling with us caring for children at FPCC!

All children are always invited to wiggle and giggle in worship! |
|
Included in worship is a time of "Wondering with God's Children" where children are invited to come forward for a message. Afterward, they are invited to remain in worship or follow Neeley and Erin downstairs to stay with the nursery workers for the rest of the service.
Worship Bags are available for children on the rack outside the Sanctuary in the Narthex.
During Worship, we invite our children to look for our FPC Church Mice! Our Church Mice will teach us about worship each Sunday!
|
|
A nursery is available on the lower level of the church for newborns through 1st grade children. We do hope children will worship with us in the sanctuary! Wiggles and Giggles are so very welcome!
Our nursery is a safe, loving, and nurturing environment for our youngest disciples.

|
Thank you to our rotation of Sunday School teachers and Nursery Workers who make it possible for FPC to have such a thriving atmosphere for children! |
