 ElementaryFor kids in elementary school, we've got many ways to get connected.
At UALC, our mission is to be and to make disciples of Jesus Christ, loving God and our neighbors with soft hearts, open hands, engaged minds, and whole spirits. Childrens' Ministry is a community of Kindergarten-5th graders practicing our faith with one another. As followers of Jesus, we worship, grow, and serve together.
Contact Andrea Taphorn, Director of Children's Ministry, for questions about anything related to Children's Ministry.
WorshipJesus said, “Let the children come to me.” We value intergenerational worship at UALC! God also put the wiggle in children, so don’t feel like you have to suppress them in worship. Feel free to bring a bag of fun to keep hands busy, while your kids take in way more than we give them credit for as they worship with you. Register here to come to an in-person service. You can also stream services at home.
Kids’ ChurchFor 3-year-olds – fifth graders
Kids' Church In-Person at Mill Run: children meet at 9:00 or 11:00 am for an engaging experience with Bible teaching and small group time. Children check-in near the nursery. PreK children stay in their Kids' Church room the entire hour, older children are dismissed from the service. Visit ualc.org/worship to register a child when you register for Sunday morning worship. Space is limited to follow safety protocols.
Kids Church in a Box: Kids and families can grow in their faith with a simple and fun monthly box chock-full of goodies that help you tie down the message from Sunday mornings each week from your home. To keep things simple, Kids’ Church will follow the Sunday morning scriptures and sermon, so that everyone in your family is learning the same Bible story each week. Register here for a box.
Kids' Church Zoom
Every Sunday at 10:00 am Kids' Church meets on Zoom for those worshiping at home. We learn our Bible story, sing, craft and pray with one another. And all of this is done in 30 minutes! Please reach out to Andrea Taphorn to ensure that you are on our weekly email that contains our Kids' Church Zoom link.
