Family Worship Sundays
Family Worship Sunday
September 6, 2026
We wanted to let you know about an upcoming Sunday when there will be no large or small group programming for Kindergarten through 5th grade.
We’re excited to offer it as a meaningful opportunity for your family to worship together! These Sundays create a special space for your children to experience the larger church service and begin to understand that they are not just part of the children’s ministry—they are an important part of our entire church family.
There is something powerful about children seeing their parents worship, pray, sing, and engage with God’s Word. These moments help shape their understanding of faith and allow them to learn what happens in the larger church setting while feeling connected to it.
We believe worshipping together as a family can broaden their understanding of church and create opportunities for conversations that continue at home.
We are looking forward to these family worship Sundays and all that God may do through them!
