Children and Worship
We believe that worship belongs to God and that God calls all children (young and
old) to worship together. Therefore, children are welcomed and encouraged to attend
worship. Each week, a Children’s Story is told during the worship service; some
children remain in worship for the entire service, and some (5 and under) go to
the nursery following Children’s Story.
Our nursery ministry is designed so that parents may decide when their child is
ready and able to stay for the entire hour. Worship notebooks are available for
children age 3-6 and 7-12. Each notebook contains a bulletin based on the Gospel
lesson for the week, a card for children to design for members who are sick and/or
in need, and crayons or pencils. Bringing up children in the faith takes a lot of
love and patience from the entire church family. At Soapstone we are faithfully
committed to this baptismal task.
Nursery Care
We provide three nurseries during both worship services: Infants- 20 months, Toddler/Twos
(20-36 months), and Ages 3-5. The infant and toddler nurseries are also available
during the Sunday School hour. Each nursery is staffed by a paid worker and Soapstone
volunteers. As we welcome new faces to our nurseries, we also welcome new parent
volunteers! For details, call the Children’s Ministries office.
