Three and Four-year Old’s– Prayer and devotions is the focus of this one Sunday workshop. There is a take home bag for everyone.
Kindergarten and First Grade-Baptismal Remembrance in January. Parents and children celebrate their Baptism, share items from this special day, and do activities together focused on Baptism.
