In our Nursery, children have their first introduction to their church home. Here they learn what Jesus taught the children: God loves you!

The nursery is located in one of our downstairs classrooms, off the large activity room. It includes a variety of toys and activities for babies and toddlers. Families may use the nursery during worship services on Sunday mornings from 9am until 11:30am. Children must be supervised by a parent in the nursery.

LINK TO SUNDAY SCHOOL CALENDAR

Church of the Good Shepherd has an active Sunday School program for children in preschool through eighth grade. Children are divided into classes by age and meet in our downstairs classrooms on Sunday mornings at 9:30am during the school year. They hear Bible stories, learn prayers and songs, share a snack, and do crafts or other activities. Older children also learn about church history, Episcopal traditions, and how to use the Bible and Prayer Book. The children then join the church service upstairs after the Peace.
