Weekday Children's Program

 Mission/Purpose

• To provide a Christian program for children ages one to five that is economically and racially inclusive, that presents an atmosphere of learning, caring and nurturing, that enables children to experience and learn of God's loving care, and that enhances their growth in self-esteem and care for others.

• To create a network of support and caring communication between parents of young children; to offer parents a time away from children and at the same time offer assurance of the child's safety and well being.

• To provide children of the First United Methodist Church families a vital connection with their own church beyond regular Sunday activities.

• To serve as an avenue of outreach and ministry to the community beyond the First United Methodist Church, to provide a doorway through which a person may learn of the ministries and fellowship of the First United Methodist Church, and to foster faith and friendship for parents and children.
