July 26-29: Day Camp and Preschool Camp
• Galastic Blast Preschool Camp: It's outer space fun this year for the preschool version of Day Camp. Children 3-5 years old and those in Kindergarten who are not yet ready for Day Camp will have a blast actively participating in Bible stories and games, making artistic creations, playing instruments, and lifting off in song. Each day we will also focus on how we can help God's beautiful creation and how we can help in our own community. An ending family celebration of song and food on Thursday will conclude this spacey week. Register here.
• Adventure Day Camp, held each year on beautiful Island Lake, is a time for children entering grades 1-7 to enjoy water activities, crafts, music, games, and more. Register here.
Camp counselors are needed for both Adventure Day Camp and Preschool Camp. Preschool Camp counselors can be as young as 6th grade; ADC counselors should have completed grades 7-12. To learn more or volunter, contact the church office, here or at 727-5021.
Here's a look at our Learn & Grow programming during September to May, Sunday Mornings 11am
Children & Youth
Discovery for preschool-1st grade
Interactive, hands-on learning, centered on Bible stories of Christian faith. Music and library time included.
Discovery Zone for grades 2-6
Elementary students gather for Praise and Song, then discover faith stories at activity stations. Focus this year is on disciples and other people who make a difference in the world. Discovery Zone kids choose two to three national/international mission projects to support with their offerings.
Exploration for middle school (grades 6-9) and high school (grades 9-12)
Exploration is about empowering youth in forming their faith: their own ideas about the world, how Christian faith intersects with those ideas, and how they choose to convey their values in the world.
