Children

Children 0-3

We have paid nursery staff who provide care during the 10:00 a.m. service on Sundays. Parents are given a Nursery beeper (it vibrates!) to take with them to worship so they can be easily reached if a child needs attention. 

Please call the Parish Office at 617-484-2228 to register your child.

Children Ages 3-12

Godly Play is spoken here during the 10:00 worship service for children ages 3-13. Godly Play is a multi-sensory approach to telling Bible stories with three-dimensional materials. In an environment of reverence and awe, children are encouraged to experience and explore the mystery of Gods presence as they encounter Gods word. Each Bible story is followed by a series of wondering questions which allow children to enter into the story by connecting biblical narrative with personal experience. The children then respond on an individual basis by working with art materials or by retelling the story themselves. Children join their parents for communion each Sunday.
