Children & Youth

We are a very child friendly church; children and youth are an important part of our church family. Children are welcome during all parts of Sunday worship. Each service has a Children’s Time when children are invited up to the Conversation Quilt to have a chat with Kathy and Michelle. Following Conversation Time, Michelle leads the way to Sunday school.

Sunday School – ages 3 to 12

We love to have fun at Sunday School! Singing, crafting, games and more! Our weekly activities are designed to connect with different learning styles. Activities range from crafts and games to baking and science experiments. We study one Bible story for 3 to 4 weeks and explore the story’s theme through a variety of activities (The Workshop Rotational Model).

Michelle, our youth coordinator, plans and leads Sunday school, assisted by volunteers from the congregation. Sunday school begins about 15 – 20 minutes into the Worship service. If you would like more information about Sunday school please contact Michelle This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Sunday school is offered most Sundays from September through May. When there is no Sunday school a “Whisper Table” is provided at the back of the sanctuary. It is stocked with a variety of crafting materials and is supervised by parents.

Youth Group – Grade 5 and up

The Youth Group’s goal is to have fun while supporting community initiatives. These young people lead busy lives but they try to meet once a month from September to May. Some annual events include a sleepover at church and a photo scavenger hunt. In addition, the Youth Group supports several organizations through fundraising and by volunteering their time. Organizations include: the Regina Food Bank, the Salvation Army, and Rainbow Youth. The Youth Group also participates in at least one Sunday service a year.

Michelle plans and leads the activities for the Youth Group with the support of parents, especially with transportation. There is always room for more! Contact Michelle for more information.

Nursery – Ages 0 to 3

Infants and toddlers are welcome during all parts of Sunday morning service, we are very child friendly. Two gliders are located at the back of the sanctuary for rocking or nursing. If needed, there is a small playroom available – please ask a greeter for directions. Toddlers who are interested in Sunday school are welcome to attend with a parent or guardian.

Getting to church is not always easy for families with young children, so we are always looking for ways to connect outside of Sunday morning. Families with young children have gathered on winter evenings and springtime afternoons, we have had coffee playdates and met for picnics at the nearby splash-pad. If you are a family with young children and would like to join these get-togethers, please contact Kathy This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
