Call the church office at (604) 987-2114 for more information on the following: Crèche - There is an infant-friendly space in the last pew for families with very young children. If they become restless during the service, the church library, located on the right as you enter the hallway through the doors on the organ side of the sanctuary, is available for kids to move around and make some noise. There is a speaker through which caregivers can continue to hear the service, if they wish.
Every Sunday the children gather with the whole congregation and we begin our worship together. Following the Time with the Children, the children leave the sanctuary and go to their own worshipping space. They have 30 to 40 minutes to worship in a way that more fully meets their needs. A story from the Bible is told and the children have an opportunity to reflect on this story experientially, either through art, drama or other activities. Parents are welcome to come and help children transition into this new experience. Several times throughout the year we have intergenerational services where the children remain in the sanctuary and participate in leading the service. On Communion Sundays, the children stay or return to the sanctuary to share in the celebration of communion. Youth Group: There is a new and exciting North Shore Youth Initiative Youth Group.
