We provide a wonderful program for children and teens which focuses on enhancing self-esteem, teaching spiritual principles, and awakening creativity. Different groups are designed to meet the changing needs of young people as they mature. In addition, a nursery for those two and under is available at both services.
Kelly Rizzi is the coordinator for the Children's Church. If you would like to
help by serving as a Sunday teacher with our children, contact her at

Newcomers
We love your kids! Here are a few tips to help your children enjoy their Sunday experience:
-
Dress in Children's church is casual. We do a lot of outside activities and field trips. School wear is great!
-
Children participate with the adults in the opening part of our 10:30 Service. Please bring your children in to the Sanctuary - we love seeing you as a family! Children will be dismissed after the congregation singing.
-
Parents are always welcome in our Children's church. And help with driving is always appreciated on field trip days!
Consistency pays off! Your children will feel more a part of the church community if they develop connections with other kids through consistent attendance.
An exciting group for children
age 8 to 12!
Our Tweens program for children
ages 8-12 (or in grades 3-7) was originally created
as a "bridge" between the Sunday morning children's
program and the Teen program. We accomplish this by
creating a program which allows more time for
workshops as well as meeting time for the kids to
plan and create activities. The curriculum is
focused on "workshop" activities similar to the type
of workshops the teens have. They will be having
"lock ins" and/or field trips or camping trips
quarterly.
The Tweens are now going into
the sanctuary with their parents on Sundays and then
leaving when all the children are dismissed during
the services. This will allow them to participate in
some of the Sunday music and help to ensure that
they will be getting to their program safely
Teen Group
The Source Teen Group meets
weekly on Sunday evenings from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.
except for the second Sunday of the month. On
that Sunday our teens attend “Youth Sunday” with
the adults of our spiritual community and serve
the congregation through ushering, offering
spiritual wisdom, and hosting the Social Hall
after the 10:30 Service.
