CHILDREN'S MINISTRY

Wapping Community Church believes that children and youth are an important part of the church - not just the church of the future, but a part of the church of today. Ministering to them in God's name, supporting their spiritual development and helping them grow into a mature Christian faith is one of the most important things we do as a church body.

LIL' SPROUTS: MINISTRY TO CHILDREN IN EARLY CHILDHOOD

   

In the earliest years of childhood, children are developing ideas such as"Church is a place where I am happy, where I feel safe, where I am loved." In our infant and toddler childcare rooms, and in our preschool and kindergarten church school classrooms, children are greeted by friendly faces and plenty of fun! We emphasize safety and developmental appropriateness in our materials, and plan activities that appeal to the youngest ones in our midst. We believe that God creates people of all ages with the desire and the capability to worship their Creator,and we hold Cherub Chapel so that even our youngest children may worship God in a way that is accessible to them. Lil' Sprouts programs happen during the 10:00 am service each Sunday.

GOD'S GARDEN: MINISTRY TO CHILDREN IN THE ELEMENTARY YEARS

 

God's Garden is the name for our church school program, a program based on the Workshop Rotation Model for church school. This model is an exciting and effective way to pass our faith tradition on to our children! In God's Garden,children experience the good news of Jesus Christ through puppetry,arts and crafts, theater, cooking, story telling, and other activities that leave them excited about what they learn in church school, wanting to come back next week for more! To view an informational Flash presentation about the model, please click here. For more information on this innovative model of church school, please visit www.rotation.org.

During the 10:00 am worship service, the following is available for children of elementary school age•
  • Church School Chapel - We believe that God has created people of all ages with the desire and the capability to worship their Creator, therefore we hold Church School Chapel so that elementary school children have a place to worship God in a way that is accessible to them.
    • Church School Worship and Communion service on the first Sunday of each month
    • Church School Worship service on the third Sunday of each month

  • Family Worship - We also believe that children who worship with adults as children will worship with adults as adults. Because of this belief, all elementary school age children worship with their families until the Passing of the Peace on the second, fourth and fifth Sunday of each month. In addition, children and their families worship together for the entire service several times during the year, including World Communion Sunday in the fall, PJs and Bells Sunday in the winter, Youth Sunday and Church School Sunday in the spring.
  • God's Garden Church School - Our church school program for grades 1-8. Please refer to the monthly Parish Post insert, the bulletin listing each week, or the information board on the door of the Christian Education Director's office for your child's weekly workshop location.
