K - 5th Grades are mixed into three groups that rotate 20 minutes each between:
Story (usually Biblical Narrative)
Hands-On (usually crafts)
Activity (sometimes music)
 
MYF (high school) will be focusing on the broad strokes of the Biblical Narrative this Fall as well as Anabaptist/Church History in November.  The Winter and Spring will be focusing on Intimacy and Sexuality as well as part II of Anabaptist History.  We will include sections on sexuality, spiritual practices, technology, and the Biblical Narrative. Additionally, there will be a "catechism" type gathering for Baptism exploration (specifically invitational for Juniors, although all high schoolers are invited each year) during Lent (February 26 through April 1st, Sunday afternoons as of yet).

Childrens Christmas Program December 11 during Worship Service.
VBS (Vacation Bible School) at FMC in June, details TBD

In our commitment to provide a safe sanctuary for our children, youth and volunteers we use the following Child Protection Policy, including annual background checks and orientation for most volunteer roles. View Child Protection Policy.
