"Young Disciples" in Worship
We love kids (of all ages) in worship ~ It is a sign of joy and life and wisdom! Children are a gift...and are welcome in ALL parts of the life of the church. On Sundays, we have a variety of opportunities for young people:
At SUMC, we are having a "growth spurt" ~ which is a wonderful thing! If you have thoughts, ideas for our young disciples...or if you have questions, please reach out to Pastor Ali. |
Summer Godly Play!!
As part of the Turquoise Table Time Summer Series, we will have Godly Play Story-time with Pastor Ali @7pm. Godly Play uses a Montessori-style learning environment to help young people wonder about how God is at work, rather than teaching them to memorize stories. "I wonder which part of the story you liked best?" "I wonder which part of the story is most important?" Each story lasts about 20-30 minutes. We will be using the Parables of Jesus on the following dates: June 28 ~ Parable of the Sower August 30 ~ Parable of the Mustard Seed September 27 ~ Parable of the Great Pearl October 25 ~ Parable of the Good Samaritan In case of inclement weather, we will have Godly Play Story-time in the Chapel. |
