Grace Church welcomes worshippers of all ages!
Our nursery is an inviting, recently-renovated space just down the hall from the sanctuary. Care is offered at the ten o'clock service for children up to age three.
We are offering a new and exciting Sunday School program for children from age four up to eleven. With the imaginative help of a dozen teachers, children are learning about God, the Bible, and the church, through a series of hands-on workshops. Children have had experiences as diverse as making "fish prints" (with real fish!) to help understand the miracle of the fish and the loaves, and a cast party following their triumphant presentation of our Christmas Pageant. They learned the Lord's prayer, in English and in sign language, and are the bakers for our Maundy Thursday eucharist. At Grace Church, children actually look forward to Sunday School, because it is so much fun. (No kidding). Sunday School meets during the ten o'clock service.
Rite 13 is our middle school youth group. The Rite 13 participants meet with three dedicated and very different adult leaders (one of whom happens to be a retired commercial pilot, one of whom happens to be a therapist, and the third of whom happens to be a clinical social worker: all of whom are lively and wonderful people) to discuss what it means to grow up in our society, and where God fits into their lives. Rite 13 meets from 9:45 until communion time each Sunday (except in summer), and welcomes new members any time.
