This care is also available during special worship services, programs, and meetings held during the year. We use lesson materials of The United Methodist Church curriculum series for children in each grade level, as well as arts and crafts, songs, and other subject-related activities. A variety of worship experiences are offered through crafts, learning centers, discussions, and Bible stories. Children should be taken to Room 107 either by the volunteer in the narthex as the children leave the worship service on the middle hymn, or by the parents prior to the beginning of the service.
Parents are responsible for going to pick up their child after the service ends.
Vacation Bible School is offered each morning for a week each June to children in our church and surrounding communities, who will turn four by September 30th of last year to those who have just completed 5th grade. Registration for VBS begins in May of each year. First Church has a unique three-year Confirmation program. Youth begin in the 7th grade and are confirmed at the end of the 9th grade year. New youth come into the program at the level of their grade in school.
