COVID PRECAUTIONS-

Unvaccinated participants and volunteers will need to be masked if that is still recommended by the CDC.  Elementary crews will rotate through stations with their crew leaders– they will interact more closely with their group but have no close contact with other groups.  There will not be a meal or an assembly in Fellowship Hall (Instead- the components of assemblies will be part of a Sing and Play Station that will be one of the rotations that groups rotate to.  We will utilize larger rooms when indoors so there can be social distancing.  We plan to do games and Imagination Station outside (weather permitting).  Preschool classes will stay in one indoor room with their group (except for games and playground), while preschool station leaders will rotate into their room to lead assembly, craft, Bible Story, KidVid, and the Sing and Play Station.

 


VIRTUAL WEDNESDAY Kids' MidWeek Meetup!
 

Our Virtual Wednesdays are an option to connect with one another in the summer months online.  This has been a moment in the middle of the week for kids to refocus on Jesus.  We play a game and connect and get to share a little bit about what going on in our lives.  We think about one particular reason that God is awesome through a video, or a devo, or demonstration.  Each week, one participant is randomly given a prize each week after we spin the "Wheel of Names".  It's short but worth your 30 minutes! 

There will not be Virtual Wednesday Meetups on 7/14 or 7/21 due to conflicts with church programming (HIS WEEK and VBS).  We will be back together for virtual on Wednesday, 7/28!

THINGS TO KNOW FOR SUNDAY MORNINGS!
 

Sunday Building Access- You can come in any door you want to!

Children's Moment- we will be inviting kids forward for the children's moment at the 9am service, and if they feel comfortable, they can join Mr. Todd by the steps. 

Worship Bags- can be found in the bins by the WOW Room as you come into the building for worship or in the vestibule of the sanctuary.

The "Pray"ground and New Stone Tables are back

Wee Ones Worship- Children who are in Kindergarten and younger will able to go out to Wee Ones' Worship after the Children's Moment at the 9am service.  The youngest children can be dropped off before the service begins. 
 

Sunday School- will be indoors at 10am (between services) in the Stine Room.  Masks are required for unvaccinated kids and leaders, but other than that, this will feel the most like what we "used to do" since March 2020.  Those entering 5th grade can still participate with children's Sunday School.  "Rally Day" is when kids will be "promoted" into youth ministry classes.

Worship and Masks- All those who are unvaccinated are still asked to wear masks per the CDC guidelines, but those who are vaccinated may participate in worship without a mask.
