Holy Week 2019 at Mt. Olivet
Sunday Formation for Children (ages 3-10)
Dear Families of Younger Ones,
At Mount Olivet, our Children's Sunday School follows the Godly Play program. Children have an innate sense of the presence of God. The Godly Play approach helps them to explore their faith through the stories of the Scriptures, to gain religious language, and to enhance their spiritual experience though wonder and play. It is based on Montessori principles.
Our Godly Play storyteller, Valeria, is looking forward to welcoming your children to Godly Play. She and the other folks who assist with Godly Play love the children at Mount Olivet and the children love them! They seek to respect all children. They warmly welcome kids of all abilities and backgrounds.
Some helpful notes:

*Our Sunday School teachers and volunteers receive a thorough and professional background check as well as training in the Episcopal Church's Safeguarding God's Children.

Some helpful notes:
- The Children start in church with their families for the 9:00am service.
- After the opening hymn and opening collect (prayer), children are dismissed for Sunday School.
- The Godly Play classroom is right off the parish hall next to the church.
- The children will rejoin their families in the church before the Peace (the mid-point in the service) and stay for Communion and the final hymn. We believe communion is important for families to share together.
