While you’re on vacation this month, Community of Grace is working overtime on exciting opportunities for your kids (and your family) to connect with God and each other! 

Nursery 
Nursery care for children birth – 3 years old (not yet potty trained) will be offered during both Sunday morning worship services beginning August 8th. Check your children in when you arrive (in the lobby) before dropping them off in the Nursery (located in the rear of the worship center, on the west side). Contact Brita for details or to volunteer: brita@boldrecklessgrace.org 

Pre-K Wonder Club
Our Pre-K Room will re-open on Sunday, August 8th during both worship services! Children ages 3-5 (potty trained, not yet in Kindergarten) will explore Bible stories and enjoy crafts and activities from the time we take the Noisy Offering in worship until the service ends. Check your children in when you arrive (in the lobby), then take them into worship with you. After the Noisy Offering, bring your children to the Pre-K room and pick them up after worship (or, if you prefer, at communion time). Note the NEW location of our Pre-K Wonder Club… we will meet in the (former) Lego Room on the east side of the lobby. Contact Brita with your questions or to volunteer: brita@boldrecklessgrace.org 

K-5 Discovery Club
Grace’s K-5th grade Discovery Club begins Sunday, September 12th! This weekly program will take place on Sunday mornings, between worship services at Grace. Children will gather from 9:50-10:20 am for a multi-age program to include music, Scripture, crafts, and learning activities. Not only are we filling in the gap between services, but this 30-minute kids’ time will help bridge the gap between church and family, bringing Jesus’ love to life as we build relationships within our faith community. Contact Brita for details or to volunteer: brita@boldrecklessgrace.org

Hey Parents,

Because our call is to forge followers of Jesus, we offer inter-generational worship (ages kindergarten on up):

  • Research shows that next to faith formation in the home, the best way to build dynamic
    faith is for generations to worship together.
  • When our kids don’t worship with us, they are highly likely to walk away from Christ
    and his Church once they reach college age (estimates run from 50-90%!).
  • If they are included as important members of the Body of Christ from childhood on,
    they are more likely to follow Jesus as adults.
  • When kids aren’t in worship with us, we miss out on the unique perspective of child-like
    faith that Jesus calls us to.

At Grace, we intentionally offer creative ways to include our kids and youth in the worship experience and help them engage with the worship service.  Most weekends, the kids will be handed a worship sheet that will help them interact with the message, and mom and dad can help!

Again, our mission is to follow Jesus on the bold, reckless adventure of grace starting in the home, in partnership with the church, out into the world!

PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS:

Wouldn’t it be great if your child came with an owner’s manual?  A how-to book on how to raise him or her? In their podcasts, Michael Gurian and Tim Wright serve as your guides through what they believe is the owner’s manual for your child: Your child’s brain. 

Michael and Tim each have over 30 years of experience using brain science research, best-practices, and their own wisdom as dads to help parents.  Join them now in a deep (and often quite humorous!) dive into that built-in how-to manual.
