Attention Parents of 3rd to 5th Graders
Welcome to Worship
We will be teaching the Welcome to Worship class for all 3rd to 5th graders starting on Sunday, January 3 from 9:45 to 12:00. The class will continue this study for four weeks (January 3, 10, 17, and 24) as a part of their Sunday school class. There will be a presentation during the 11:00 worship service on January 24 to recognize the children who complete the study. This course prepares them for worshiping with their families.
We are asking that all parents of children in the 3rd to 5th grade (whose child did not attend this class already) to consider letting your child participate in this study and stay each Sunday for the entire class (12:00). This is a very important study that teaches them about the Seasons, Symbols and Sacraments of the church. Please call Lea Ann in the front office at 268-5549 ext 110, Angie at ext 143, or email me at aengelthaler@mumc.net for more information.
