Children & Family

We renew our faith and faith of all people through study, devotion, encouraging spiritual practices and lifting up spiritual gifts. We are a church who is active in faith formation – include formation of our young folk – equipping all who enter our space for a life-long journey of faith.

Frolic

Frolic provides faith formation for our children under three and their parents. Volunteers teach a parent and child faith class in the fall and spring and we send a monthly e-newsletter to parents with faith ideas for their little ones. By connecting Christian faith with developmental milestones, Frolic helps lay a foundation for faith that lasts a lifetime.

Sunday School

Classes meet between services at 10:00 a.m. from early September through Mid-May.

Children who are PreKindergarten threes through second grade participate in Montessori style learning to encourage prayerfulness, discovery, and wonder. As they hear stories of faith from the Bible, we want to give them the tools to ask big questions.

Our third through eighth graders use curriculum that grow with them as they progress in their understanding of our faith stories and how those stories apply to their daily lives.

Each summer, LMC offers a one-week Vacation Bible School for four-year-olds through kids entering fifth grade.  Although the theme changes yearly, you can always expect prayer and learning mixed with a lot of fun and games.

Specific information about our 2017-2018 Youth and Family Programs is available in our Youth and Family Book!

This summer at LMC, we’re introducing a new program that will run the week of June 25-29 in the evenings called LMC Faith & Family Week. Studies have shown the highest predictor of a child engaging in a thoughtful faith journey throughout their life isn’t big church events, service projects, or even camp (though those are all great and fun and we’ll keep doing them), but time as a family talking and growing in faith together. Community and congregation are just next to that. So let's get those three things happening at the same time for a week this summer. Everyone is welcome. All ages. Children must attend with their adult(s). Adults without children (or with children who are grown and gone) are also encouraged to attend. You have so much to teach our children and, if you listen carefully, the kids might have something to teach you as well. 

We'll serve a simple deli style dinner at 6:00pm. Activities will begin at 6:45pm (Get ready for gardening, music, skits, art, and games)

Come one day. Come every day. Just let us know so we can plan for enough food and supplies.
