What’s a Registration Form?

We require, for safety reasons, a Registration Form filled out on each child from Infant to 5th grade. If you have not done one yet, please see a Nursery Worker or your child’s Sunday Small or Large Group Leader for the Form. Not sure? We can check for you, just ask. Information changed? You can update form from previous year. Do you have to fill a new one out each year? Not any more. We just ask that you check the current information sometime this summer so we can all be ready for our new classes.
