CHILDREN’S EDUCATION HOUR
We are currently thinking through and planning ways to better engage the kids on Sunday mornings. We are planning on testing out our ideas the month of August and will officially kick off the new year of education September 10 at Rally Day!!
You will be getting more information throughout the month of July.
If you have a passion to help lead, please let me know and I will be happy to talk more about it with you!
For 9:15am, we are looking for a few K - 5th grade leaders!
For KREW (10:30 Service), we will need a Preschool leader, K-3rd grade leader, and a 4-5th grade leader for each Sunday.
If you can volunteer for one of these groups at least one Sunday a month, please let me know!
