Junior Church Volunteers - To support this program during the 11am service, we need volunteers please to serve as rotating lead and assistant teachers each week. If your child will be attending Junior Church, we ask that you please volunteer at least one Sunday this winter. NO PREP WORK IS REQUIRED!!! On Sunday morning, activity directions and materials will already be set up in the classroom for you. This volunteer opportunity is for both adults and youth. All volunteers must have current child abuse clearances on file with the church office. If you are interested in serving in this ministry, please sign up using this link:
Nursery
There is a nursery available during our 11:00 am services. Childcare is provided for children infant to 5 years of age. Childcare is available during the 11 am worship service in the upper education wing. Additionally, you will find a comfort room for infants in the back of the sanctuary. There are also changing tables located in the women's and men's rooms in the Narthex.
Junior Church
On Sunday, during the 11am service. After the children's moment with Pastor Keith, children will be dismissed to the education wing. Children who are preschool age and younger should report to the nursery. Children who are enrolled in elementary school will be divided into two classes: Kindergarten - 2nd grade and 3rd-5th grades.
This fall we will be diving into the Old Testament and learning about how God's promises point to Jesus!
Hearts and Hands
the Hearts & Hands team will meet on Tuesday, May 19th at 6:00pm in the Wesley Room. All congregation members are welcome to join this new team focused on supporting Children's Ministry, without even needing to interact directly with a child! At this event, we will work on setting up materials for the next few weeks of Junior Church and Children's ministry events as well as provide input on planning some upcoming events. Dinner will be provided, so please be sure to notify Jennie if you have any dietary restrictions or needs. To RSVP for this new team, please email Jennie directly at jsmith@bakerstownumc.org.
