Children’s Sunday School classes will be collecting quarters during the month of December to give to the Methodist Children’s Home. They will be putting quarters in a “change collector” card. When the card is filled, it will hold $10 in quarters!
Our Weekday Ministries Program is also participating in this project.
Children ages 3 through 5th grade will love this party. On December 4, the children will go to their normal Sunday school room, and will be escorted to the gym. There will be several stations to visit, with Christmas stories and a live nativity provided by the youth of our church. A snack will finish up the party. This annual event is enjoyed by everyone and we hope to see you there!
