  • Join us on Sundays at 9 AM in the sanctuary for "A Time with Children," before heading over to The Cove located on the bottom floor in the UMC-building, for Sunday School where a fun and dynamic brand of faith formation and a greater understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ takes place until 10 AM. On Communion Sundays, we ask that you pick up "Kids First" from The Children's Music Room below the sanctuary.

Become an Acolyte

GRADES 4 - 12

Acolytes assist in sanctuary worship services year-round. They lead the choir processional, light the altar candles, receive the offering, assist in baptisms, extinguish the altar candles, and assist at special services wherever needed. Acolytes learn leadership and cooperation skills as well as symbolism in our worship services. If you have questions please contact Demmie in the church office 619-297-4366 x138.
