Our Children First service on November 6 will be extra special because . . .
Thing One — We will have Communion during the service. This is a great opportunity for families to experience Jesus’ special meal together.
Thing Two — Prior to the service — from 9:30 – 9:45 am — we will have a Baptism of the Lovies service. (See below for details.)
Thing Three — The Children’s Choirs are making their Big Debut in Children First this year. (And they are rocking it!)
Oh, and Bonus Thing — This Sunday is Fall Back! You get an extra hour to get here.
See you Sunday,
Mark
Baptism of the Lovies
Children are invited to bring a doll, blanket, or other lovie from home.
Our own Dr. Mike Marshall will lead a service where each child’s lovie will be baptized while the child holds it.
Don’t worry — it will only be the lightest of sprinkles (all the same, toys with electronics should probably stay at home).
We want to give children a concrete way to connect with what baptism symbolizes in our faith — that we are part of God’s family, we are blessed by God’s grace, and God loves us no matter what.
