Our Curriculum

Grow, Proclaim, Serve!
We will explore families in the Bible, learn how today’s faith families care for children as they grow, build loving relationships, and find out what it means to be part of God’s family! Children gather in large groups for the Bible story, music, and movement, then break into age-level small groups to dig deeper and apply the story to their daily lives. We look forward to learning and gathering together!

Readers for Worship

We are asking children to read the scriptures for worship on the 2nd Sundays of the month.  Please let Michelle Jones know if your child is interested and what month your child would be available to do so.  Again, readers will begin on-line and when we resume in-person worship will read the scriptures during their assigned month. Contact the michelle.jones@maxpres.org if you are interested.

Acolytes

Lighting the candle for worship is an important job! Please let us know if your child would be interested in doing this as a meaningful part of our worship service. Contact michelle.jones@maxpres.org if you are interested.
