Nursery & Elementary
“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” — Matthew 19:14ReCharge: Children
PreK/K and our elementary children will begin each Sunday from September through May by singing songs before they head into their classrooms. Through timeless Bible stories, hands-on-activities, and child-friendly themes, our Big Faith curriculum offers faith-formation experiences that are tangible, applicable, and meaningful to children’s everyday lives. Each quarter of Big Faith will be divided into monthly units with a fun, child-friendly theme.
Sunday Funday: On select third Sundays, we will be having fun with a different theme each time. Meets 10:30-11:15 am.
October 20: Music Day
November 17: Cookies & Cards
December: No event planned. The kids are working on their Christmas pageant this month.
Are you interested in supporting our children in a small group by being a teacher, shepherd, or leading an event? Contact Shelly Stienbarger at sstienbarger@bakermemorialchurch.org.
NURSERY: The room opens at 9:20 am on Sundays.

Children's Christmas Pageant
Save the date for our children’s Christmas pageant on December 22nd. We will present WOW! A Christmas Nativity Play Script for Kids by Gwynne Watkins. It will be presented the last 15 minutes of the worship service. We are looking for children of all ages to help. If your child is interested in acting, singing, reading, or able to sit and watch the story around them in costume to represent angels, sheperds, animals, or the three kings, please reach out to Shelly at sstienbarger@bakermemorialchurch.org.
