We strive to be an exceptionally family-friendly congregation, offering parents and children support, encouragement, fellowship and opportunities for growth in faith. One of our important goals is to make Sunday morning a stress-free time for the whole family.

We currently have several families with children from pre-school to high school as active participants. During our Sunday worship time, and for important gatherings, we have a staffed nursery for pre-school children and an activities table for children in elementary school. The activities table area adjoins the worship area, so children stay within sight of their parents and can easily join the worshiping group for prayers and communion. Other local Epsicopal churches offer our youth opportunities to join in mission trips and other activities which we are not yet large enough to sponsor on our own.

As a small, growing congregation, we have the ability to individualize our services for children and youth, striving to suit the needs and desires of each family. We encourage our children and youth to take active roles, as appropriate to their ages and abilities, in all aspects of our congregational life, including Sunday morning worship preparations, as prayer leaders and readers during services, staffing the nursery and with meaningful participation in congregational decision-making.

We do not offer a formal Sunday School at this time, but our Senior Warden -- an experienced educator, child development specialist and Sunday School teacher -- is available to work with families on an individual or group basis to design and assist with educational strategies to suit the family. In addition to a personal library of Sunday School resources for preschool through adult learners, our Senior Warden also monitors and can recommend websites with theologically sound and developmentally appropriate materials.
