Infant, Children, and Youth programs

For Children, our Godly Play group meets at 10:00 am on Sundays once a month in the courtyard classroom.  For ages K-5th grade, this gathering uses a Montessori-style method to bring the biblical stories to life.  More information about Godly Play can be found here.

Nursery care is available during the 10am service for infants through preschool.

Masks are optional.  Communion is distributed in both kinds. Outdoor or in-door coffee hour will follow the service.  The Guild and Parish Halls are available for eating indoors.

We choose to follow Jesus and his teachings. We embrace community and action, informed by the life of St. Francis.
