Family Sundays
HOPE values kids! We want kids to know they’re a part of the church now, and not just when they’re “grown up.” A few times a year we specifically invite elementary children to worship together with their families. On Family Sundays there is no Sunday School offered for elementary ages. We prepare special activities for them to pick up on the way in to worship. Nursery and Preschool are still offered during Family Sundays.
