Here is some info that might be helpful: 
   Currently we are without organized toddler coverage and are reworking our plan for this element of our day.  However, if the need arises don't hesitate to 
bring your infant or child downstairs and visit in the toddler area with him/her.
   For worship we enter the sanctuary through the front doors of the church and be greeted in the narthex at which time you'll also be handed a bulletin or program for today's worship service. We've found it helpful to arrive 10-15 minutes ahead of time [9:45am] and have a few minutes to meet and greet us. Please introduce yourself and sign our guest book located in the narthex so we can contact you and answer any questions you might have. 
   After the service we gather in the parish hall downstairs (just follow the crowd to find the stairs) for coffee hour. This is a great time to meet some of the congregation and share some of yourselves as well.
    Our Sunday school or Christian Education program begins in the sanctuary with the Minister as part of our worship service where the children are given a "children's moment" and then during one of the hymn's are escorted by the CE staff to their classroom. The Children's Moment is a brief story which relates to the scripture our sermon will be focusing on, this is great because 
at the dinner table later on that night you'll be able to talk with your children about the worship service and the lessons learned.
