Children
Faith Formation for Infants to 5th Grade
Wednesdays at Bethany
Spark Nite: Preschool (3 & 4 year old's)
A creative and playful approach to Christian education for young children to nourish and guide their spiritual growth. Children learn through stories and are encouraged to wonder about different aspects of the story.
Spark Nite Elementary: Kindergarten-5th Grade
A fun and exciting time for children to learn about God in a fun way and be able to grow spiritually while interacting with other children to build relationships within the community.
Children’s Worship
Sunday Mornings
Preschool-5th Grade
Children’s Worship takes place on Sundays during the 10:00am service. Children start in service with their parents and after the children’s sermon, children exit with Deacon Debra and Mr. Zach to go to the Great Hall and hear a story, create a craft or play a game related to the story, and sing some songs. Children return to the sanctuary just before communion.
Milestones
When a child is baptized the parents, sponsors, and the entire congregation promise to help raise the child in the faith. Faith Milestones are our way of ensuring that we uphold these promises as our children grow. From Kindergarten through 5th Grade, we walk our children and their families through Luther’s Small Catechism. With our youth and adults, we wrap faith around pivotal life events.
