KidsConnect is designed for children in preschool through 5th grade. Through games, story time, and activities, children learn more about God, the Bible, and worship, as well as how to apply these concepts to everyday life. The KidsConnect program has a one-time $20 registration fee per child to cover program costs for the year. Register online here or on the Church App.
Wednesdays, Starting September 13th, 6:15-7:00
Gather with other parents for friendship, conversation, and support during midweek KidsConnect. We’ll enjoy fellowship and discuss one chapter of a book per week. Bless This Mess is written by a child psychologist and minister and discusses the practical and spiritual aspects of parenting in a down-to-earth manner. Register online here to reserve a copy of the book which will be distributed at our first gathering. Questions? Contact Pastor Sarah (swheatley@fumcnorthville.org).
