Autumn for the Kids

Sept 11 – BranchKids Kick-off

• Nursery: Infants – 24 months
• Toddler: 2 – 3 year olds
• PreSchool: 4 – 5 year olds
• Grade School: 1st – 4th grades

Join us as we begin a new year and new curriculum in BranchKids. Nursery, Toddler and PreSchool classes meet downstairs in their rooms at the beginning of worship. The Grade School class starts out in worship and is dismissed to their room before the sermon. In each room, the kids will learn about and experience God’s love. After worship, you can pick your kids up from their rooms downstairs.

Sept 18 – BranchStudents Kick-off

Students and parents, join us at our first meeting of the year for food and fellowship at Brian and Laura Workman’s home. The rest of the year, we will meet (without the parents!) on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month. We will share a meal, play games, and study the Bible. When there is a fifth Sunday, we will gather together for a special activity. More details on those events coming soon…

Sept 25 – Family Day

PreSchool and Grade School classes will not on the last Sunday of each month. Instead, they will join us for corporate worship. Coloring pages and other age appropriate activities will be available in the back of the sanctuary. We think it’s important for the kids to experience corporate worship. We also recognize that they are kids and we don’t expect them to sit quietly for the entire hour. It’s ok if we hear them and it’s ok if they have to walk out and use the bathroom. They are part of our family and we love them just the way they are.

Oct 2 – BranchKids Offering Kick-Off

We will begin collecting money for Kenya Matters in the PreSchool and Grade School classes. For more information on that organization, visit www.kenyamatters.org. We will encourage kids to collect their spare change at home or bring money as part of our weekly collection so we can help feed kids in another part of the world.
