NURSERY COMMITTEE

Melissa Kavanagh (chairperson)

We recognize that during their first years children change more rapidly than they will at any other time in their lives.  They need environments where they can experience love, compassion, and understanding as they learn and grow.  Our Sunday morning nursery  (newborn to two-years-old – Sunday's 8:00 am – 12:00 pm) provides a safe environment where children can experience Christian love in the form of a warm smile, a soothing (or sometimes silly) song, a short story, or an encouraging word.  You can be confident that your child will be receiving professional care from individuals that have received training and undergone security background checks.  All parents with children in the nursery are provided with beepers to provide you the security of a quick method of contact in the event you need to be reached while on our church campus.
