Sunday School
9:45-10:45: EH Kids
11:00-12:00: EH Kids (Kids start in service and come upstairs after children’s time)
At East Heights, we believe that even the very youngest are ready and eager to develop their faith and relationship with God. To help the children on their journey, we offer church school at 9:45 a.m. on Sunday mornings for children ages 3 through fifth grade. Everyone meets upstairs, in The Summit, and all are welcome! If you are a newcomer, please ask one of our greeters to help you find the appropriate classroom.
We also offer Godly Play, a time for children ages 4 through 4th grade attending the 11 a.m. sanctuary service, to learn Bible stories. After the Time for Young Christians during 11 a.m. service, children will be directed to follow the Godly Play teacher to The Summit. Parents can pick up their children upstairs in The Summit after worship.
Parents: There are times when we will need health information on your children. The form you will be asked to complete can be accessed here. EHUMC medical liability form (1) Thank you!
