Time to celebrate!

Every year we mark the end of our church school program year with a special Sunday dedicated to celebrating the young people of our church, the programs we share all year and the people who make them special and make them happen.  In the past, we’ve had musicals, skits, songs, special musicians, guest preachers, decorations, gifts given and food to celebrate.  Though the means of celebrating have varied from year to year, the message and purpose stays the same: Our church values kids and Christian education, and we are pretty happy with how well it goes each year, so much so that we want to devote a whole worship service each year to show it!

This year we have some great things planned for Children and Youth Ministries Celebration Sunday!  The children have two special songs that they have been learning that they would like to sing for everyone.  The Youth Congo Band will be playing throughout the service as well as a special violin solo by Sophie BosworthViscuso and a special song played on the chimes by a group of children and youth.  We’ll sing well loved hymns. One of our Senior High students, Alexander Babiak will be our guest preacher.

What’s a celebration without special food??  After worship we will head downstairs for coffee, lemonade and the youth work trip strawberry shortcake fundraiser.

The children are very excited to share their music with you!  We look forward to worshiping together.
