PAST CHURCH ACTIVITIES
Youth Activities
In addition to an active Sunday School, there are lots of fun activities for children and youth. We need adults to help plan and run the various events. These include:
- Youth Groups
- Youth Mission trip
- Arts in the Park
- Youth-led worship

Youth Mission Trip
Each year the junior and senior high youth groups embark on a mission trip to a community in the US that really needs their help. These are true mission trips to help those who have asked for assistance. Although the accommodations are spartan (often involving sleeping bags on a church floor), the sightseeing is modest (what can be seen from the bus window), and the weather may be hot and humid, the labor is hard, the friendships are for life, and God's world is improved just a little bit. What better way to spend a "vacation?"

Nursery service
10:00- noon Traditional Worship Service
For years, our nursery ministry has provided a “play-date” for little ones while parents worship. Currently a paid staff person serves in the nursery during the traditional worship service.
For your child’s comfort and safety: You must sign your child in and out each week. We also recommend that you provide us with your current cell phone number on the nursery’s sign in sheet, and set your cell phone on vibrate. This allows us to call you if there is a need. Diaper bags should be clearly labeled and hung-up. Please include two clean diapers along with personal clean-up items. We’ll take care of the rest.
If your child is bothered by your leaving, you are welcome to stay. The traditional worship service can be heard beginning at 10:30a.m. in the nursery via speakers or 1290AM or 107.5FM, WNIL, on the radio.
Youth Worship Services
Youth are active in worship! Youth occasionally lead worship in the sanctuary. These have an element of fun, but carry a deeper message applicable to everyone.
