Children's Ministry

Our new Christian Education Committee chairs:

Richard and Jody Snyder, pictured above with their daughters Elisabeth and Kate, are now the chairpeople of Christian Education. Watch for more CE news here soon!

Nursery

Our nursery is staffed with a professional preschool caregiver, assisted by volunteer “Huggers” each week.  Your infant/preschooler will feel right at home. Nursery care is available from 9:30 - 11:30 a.m. in room 106.  Come by and meet Ena Tolentino.

Elementary

Children's ministry is a top priority at the IPC. Preschool through Grade 6 students are invited to begin worship with their parents in the sanctuary. Following their own special “Children’s Moment” with Pastor Murray, they move on to Sunday School classrooms during the school year. Preschool - 2nd grade children may be picked up after 11:15 a.m. in Room 100 while 3rd - 6th graders may rejoin their parents at the Coffee Hour.

Children's Sunday School classes are held after Children's Moment on Sundays.  Preschool through age 12 are all welcome!

Adult Bible Study_____________________________

Classes are organized at Pastor Frick's home on Sunday evenings at various times throughout the year.

Early Communion Classes______________________

These are classes for parents and children who would like to know more about communion.  This is a great way for each family to discover the meaning of Communion and to decide when the right time is for the children in their family to begin to participate.  The class is aimed at children who are too young for the confirmation class or pastor’s class but are interested in communion.  Classes are periodically organized depending upon the number of people interested.

Youth Ministry at the IPC:
 

Youth ministry is an important part of our church life and we are blessed with a great group of students.  Both junior high and senior high youth meet on Sunday mornings for Sunday School during the last half of the worship hour.

At the moment we have one youth group who meet after Children's Moment each Sunday.

Students are challenged to put their faith in Jesus Christ and to grow in their understanding of Christian discipleship by sharing their talents and gifts each Sunday during worship.
