We love the sound of children during church! We have in-service activities for the kids! During our Sunday morning worship, we have a Children’s Moment where children come forward and hear a story or a short lesson related to the sermon.
Science Camp is a free summer event during the month of June for High Schoolers and July for Grade School and Toddlers.
A "walking school bus" to and from the church picks up kids in the neighborhood. Each morning we have breakfast together get some reading and math tutoring and then work on fun science projects. A sack lunch is sent home with them at noon.
This serves many needs in our community. i.e. childcare, tutoring, socializing, food insecurity and just plain fun. We planted beans, built rockets (and launched them!) Some animals came to visit us. Volunteers read books with the children. Different library books are available each week. Last year we had so much fun!
At the end, we had a huge party with food, games, and a bouncy castle!
Our volunteers had just as much fun as our kids!
We also hold mini-camps on teacher in-service days and in odd months we conduct Science Saturdays which serve families.
For Science Saturdays, Students in grades pre-K through six can bring a parent or guardian or work with one of our volunteers. We share a meal and spend the morning doing fun science projects and then build something cool to take home like a model rocket or robot.
All Are Welcome.
