SUNDAY MORNING OVERVIEW
for all ages
|
Be sure to pick up a Christian Education brochure located at the Welcome Center desk for complete up-to-date information about what's going on in Sunday School. We offer a Security Tag check-in system for preschoolers, weekly take-home papers for adults and children, and quarterly daily devotional booklets for anyone, large print editions for some, with special magazines for parents.
A “Cry Room” (non-staffed nursery; parents stay with their babies) is available anytime in Room 306 and is equipped with a speaker for listening to the sermon.
Cornerstone Cafe - the youth and their adult leaders will offer gourmet coffee and “goodies” between worship services in the Welcome Center Foyer to greet/meet people coming through the church doors. Stop by and see us! Proceeds over and above expenses: we tithe 10% and sponsor two children through World Vision every month and also put money into the student/scholarships fund.
