ADVENT LUTHERAN CHURCH

“With joy and thanksgiving we commit Advent Lutheran Church to be the Welcome Place, where through God's Grace, we Gather, Forgive, Grow, and Care."
CHILDREN
 

Children
From infants, to preschoolers, to 6th graders -
we love kids at Advent

Nursery
Our nursery is located in the Narthex (the Lobby). Children under the age of three are welcome to stay for the entire service or "drop in" when needed. 

Children of all ages are always welcome to attend worship!


Children's Message

Children of all ages are invited forward during most Sunday Services to hear a special message.


Sunday School
Classes meet from 9: 30 - 10:30 am from mid September to mid May. Our curriculum follows the lectionary  - each class studies about one of the same lessons read during the service. We also hold several all church events during the year, including a Festival of the Palms on Palm Sunday and an End of Sunday School Celebration.

Wednesday STEPS
From mid September to mid May we offer an opportunity for families to gather for mid week activities. Dinner is offered at 5:30 pm, followed by classes for all ages from 6:15 - 7 pm. A family friendly, contemporary worship with a band, communion and a message to help in everyday life, ends the evening. (The worship changes pace during Advent and Lent.)

Happy K.O.W.s : Grades 1 - 6 gather for Hands On games, crafts and cooking
