Ministry Description
Favorite Bible Verse Romans 12–I love the entire chapter, but verses 1 and 2 are a good summary: Therefore, I urge you, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God–this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–His good, pleasing and perfect will. Faith Statement I believe that God loves each one of us and wants us to experience the fullness of that love on this earth as well as in eternity. If we accept Jesus Christ as our personal redeemer and do our best to live following His example, we can find true joy and contentment in all circumstances |

Ministry Description
Each one hour segment is broken down into 45 minutes of free play time and about 15 minutes of circle time. We have blocks, trucks, books, stuffed animals, art projects, toy houses, puzzles and other wonderful toys for children to explore. After free play time, we all clean up the nursery together and spend time sitting as a group sharing stories, singing songs and blowing bubbles. There is no pre-registration required. Caregivers are always welcome to stay and play with their children for as long as they wish. We look forward to seeing you this Sunday! Nursery Care Attendant Nursery Hours:
