Childhood faith experiences at Church and at home really matter (even during COVID).
Childhood Faith Experiences at Church and at home really matter (even during COVID). And because of that….we have modified our rooms, enhanced our cleaning process, physical distanced everything and revamped the way that we provide ministry programs to kids so that your child can come to church and continue to connect with their friends, develop a personal faith in Christ and discover how God’s truth applies to their life.

FAQ
What if there is no more room for my child’s age/grade when I try to save-a-spot?
We encourage families to try switching service times if your preferred service time is full.

No, at this time, there is no changing rooms or mixing of groups which we normally do for some of our story times.
Are you serving snack?
No, there is no food being provided or allowed to be brought into the class at this time.
Can my child use the water fountain if they are thirsty while in class?
No, unfortunately, they will have to wait until you pick them (if they are really thirsty we’ll page/text you).

Yes, we do, you can request a copy (cmadmin@thechurch.to)
Sea Kids Adventures
Thursday October 22 Update
Watch Sea Kids and discover how David gets uses his comic book to get ready (or not so ready) for a Bible contest. Watch HERE
(The Bible Challenge video, starts half way through episode 5 at 11:46 minutes) or create a Right Now media account here and then watch. There is nothing we can do to make God love us more BUT reading our Bible and praying helps our faith in God to grow. What will you be reading in your Bible tonight?
Help Needed
Tuesday October 20 Update
How strong are you? Even Moses (Exodus 17) got tired & weary and needed help. Look around and see who God put close to you, to help you do, what He wants you to do. God is good.
Donut Care
Donut Care
Thursday October 15 Update
Every worry about what others think about you? King David cared more about honouring God than about pleasing people. He celebrated what God had done for him, by dancing with all his might. Donut care about other’s opinions, instead please God. Read the story in 2 Samuel 6:12b-22a.
