Children

Our Why:

To make a safe space for Children and families to build Christian formation into their daily lives so that it becomes the foundation for their identity.

Our How:

At the Cathedral, we try to meet each family's needs right where they are, and as their needs change, so do we. We heartily welcome families to bring their children to services.

We welcome children to participate and learn as fully as they are able in services, and we understand their inclinations to stretch, move, and wonder. In our pews, there is room for everyone, no matter how large, small, or wiggly.

As you enter through the main Cathedral entrance, please let one of the ushers know that your child would like one of our “Worship Bags.” These bags are designed to be used, returned, and replenished each week. They contain a children’s service leaflet, coloring crayons, and some quiet toys.

We believe when we hear the sounds of children in church, we will ultimately hear the sounds of church in children.

Sunday School

Each Sunday we gather together as a community and grow in our faith through teaching and discussion. September through April at the 10 a.m. Formation Hour.

This weekly offering begins in Golding Chapel for a time of story, songs, games, and prayers. Then children are taken to their classrooms in the Jones building. We really believe that given an opportunity to hear the good news of Jesus - your kids will want to participate too!

Children's Sunday School is a weekly time of Christian formation for children ages 2 years - 5th grade. Learn more about the Cathedral's Children's ministry. Register now.
