For Children Nursery Care Child care is provided in our Nursery on the main floor during the 9:00 am service Sunday mornings for children up to two years old. Many parents pick up their children from the Nursery and bring even the very young to church to receive Communion or a blessing. Children's Chapel A Sunday service for children ages three through seven is held during the service in a location away from the main sanctuary. It provides an opportunity for the children to hear a Bible story, pray, sing and begin to learn the rituals of the Church in a relaxed and nurturing environment while parents are in church. Children join their parents in the church for Communion. Sunday School St. Andrew's Sunday School offers an environment in which a child experiences God's love, acceptance and the Christian faith. Age-graded Bible education is introduced in creative and engaging ways, so that all who are involved may fully live into the life of Christ that we receive through baptism and personal faith. Sunday school runs from September through May. First Communion Classes These classes are held each Spring and prepare the children of St. Andrew's to receive their first communion in May. Vacation Bible School St. Andrew's offers a week- long Bible adventure for children in Kindergarten through grade 6. A theme is chosen for each week and the readings and activities follow that theme. Vacation Bible School is an excellent opportunity for Middle and High School students to participate in teaching and leadership activities. For
