Children are a big part of our congregational life at St. John’s Grace, and we see ourselves as a multi-generational “family” church. Yet family means many things: adoptive families, foster families, single parent families, two parent families, families with same sex parents, families caring for elders and elders caring for families. You will find all kinds of families here at St. John’s Grace UCC.
Here’s just a bit of info about how children are included in our community.
Worship
Children are always welcomed to remain in the sanctuary during worship.
Nursery Care

Babies and children are always welcome to remain in worship with their parents. We also provide Nursery Care in our nursery each Sunday for children 4 & under. Care is provided by volunteers from the congregation.
