The Essential Paradox

FAMILY MINISTRIES Your children are very important to you; and they are important to us! We offer child care for ages 0-3 years, staffed by helpful and caring volunteers. You can drop off your children any time after 9:30am and pick them up after worship. If you prefer to keep your little one with you, a cry room is available at the back of the sanctuary.
