Meat will be provided, but please bring a dish (salad or dessert) to pass and your own table setting. If the day is nice, we will be utilizing our fabulous courtyard - so lawn chairs and blankets are welcome!!

There are still loads of ways you can help out with Sunday School. Most importantly, we need teachers and substitute teachers - committed, loving individuals who want to help children grow in understanding and faith.

Westminster’s Nursery

Sundays during worship, 9:30-11:45 a.m.

We are glad to provide nursery service for our children up to four years old. Our Nursery Attendant, Sandra Falls, and the youth who assist, enjoy the interaction with the youngest children of the congregation. This service is provided during Sunday worship service and the Sunday School hour. Shirley White and Shelley Malone teach the 2 year olds during the first 20 minutes of Sunday School hour, and Lisa Fast and Katey Birch teach the 3-4 year olds during Sunday School.

Parents and children of those older than four years old find the activity books and children’s bulletins a positive source of keeping our post nursery children happy during worship. Our ushers are glad to assist you in finding the right fit of ‘worship supplies’ for your child.

Tuesday Morning Bible Study

Every Tuesday, 9 - 10 a.m.

You are invited to join the Pastor on Tuesday morning at 9 a.m. to explore the scriptures for the coming week's worship service.

We begin with prayer, study the scriptures for the coming Sunday, and reflect on what they are saying to us at the particular time in the life of the church and the world.

This is an experience for those who enjoy the weekly dialog between life and faith in a community of worhip, prayer and service. Each week is self contained, so we invite you to try it . . .you'll like it!

Youth Sunday School:

Experiencing, Learning, Knowing our Faith

Our knowledge of God is a gift that has been given to us through God's loving Spirit-what better way to take care of that gift than by participating in a Westminster Sunday school program? Westminster offers many quality educational opportunities that assist on the journey of exploring God's word.

At Westminster, we begin teaching our youngest children at age 2 and continue to offer educational programs for every age thereafter. Members of the church and visitors alike are welcome to attend any of the classes we offer. There are no advanced sign-ups or fees, and we provide all the materials.

Children enjoy the diversity of learning that is offered at Westminster-from the small group opportunities where they learn that day's bible story, to the larger group experience that allows them to engage with children of different ages.

Westminster used the Walk With Me curriculum that offers a variety of ways to learn Scripture with our Reformed perspective. If you have any questions about any of our Sunday school programs, or would like to review the curriculum, feel free to call the church office at 583-1729. All are welcome to join and learn on Westminster's faith journey.
