Children at Second

We welcome your family...

to worship and learn at Second Church!

9 AM • Stories of Our Faith • Room 304
Children ages 4 through fifth grade will gather to engage in sacred stories and a wide range of activities through the Stories of Our Faith series. This year, we’re learning about what it means to follow Jesus!

10 AM • Worship Service and Children’s Chapel 
Children ages 4 through fifth grade begin in the sanctuary with their families.

After the Word with Children, they have two options:

Stay: Return to the pews and worship with the whole congregation.
Go: Dismissed with staff and volunteers to Children’s Chapel, followed by Children’s Choirs or other creative activities.
        • Room 309 • PreK-1st Grade Cherub Choir 
         • Room 355 • 2nd-5th Grade Carol Choir
         • Room 307 • 2nd-5th Grade (non-choir creative activity)

Childcare is available all morning for children 3 years and younger.

We’re committed to creating a warm and welcoming space for families and children of all ages. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

Volunteer Opportunities

Do you have 1–3 hours to give? Caring for children is the responsibility of the whole church, and the relationships they build with caring adults make a lasting impact on their faith. A variety of opportunities are available, including rocking babies, playing with toddlers, teaching Sunday School, telling a Godly Play story, or helping with a special event. Your time and care can make a lasting difference in the lives of children in our community.

Interested? Contact Katherine McKinney, Coordinator of Children & Family Ministries, for more information.

Serve as an Acolyte

Acolytes bring God’s light into the sanctuary each Sunday morning during program year at the 10 AM service to begin worship. This wonderful and fun ministry allows your child(ren) to serve in the church. All training takes place in about an hour; the only other time commitment is arriving 15 minutes early before service on the Sundays your child(ren) participates.

If your child is going to be in the 3rd, 4th, 5th, or 6th grade and is interested in being a part of this ministry, please contact Sonya Rasmusson, Acolyte Coordinator at 317-370-5375 (cell) or indyras@comcast.net.
