All Ages Together
We welcome friends of all ages to share in Sunday service together.
Learn how you can join our Sunday service, which are held at each Sunday at 10 a.m. Our service hour begins with family-friendly welcomes, language, music, and spiritual practice.
Shortly after the “Time for All Ages” story, the service shifts to a more mature focus, and children may naturally turn to themed/other activity as older members of the household remain engaged with worship.
We hold several ALL-AGES (multigenerational) worship services throughout the church year. Created to engage friends of all ages, these services include moments of song, silence, prayer, movement, and always the lighting of candles! At the sanctuary entrances children will find “busy boxes,” which they’re invited to take with them to their seats with their loved ones. Our church family welcomes and cherishes children–we understand wiggles and giggles.
All are welcome here.
All-ages worship services can include:
- Water Communion (Ingathering first Sunday of the church year, in September): all are invited to share water from our summer journeys
- Bread Communion (Sunday prior to Thanksgiving): all are invited to share a sample of a family favorite or traditional bread
- Living Nativity service: our own interactive retelling of the beloved Nativity Story
- Christmas Eve candlelight service: traditional Christmas Eve lessons and carols
- Service celebrating Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
- Service reflecting on the Passover Seder story
- Easter Sunday worship (includes our Alternative Treasure Hunt for children between services!)
- Earth Day Sunday
- Bridging Sunday celebrating children, youth, and transitions
- Flower Communion (third Sunday in June): all are invited to bring a flower from home (or from a basket at the church entrance) to share
