Children’s Chapel
Children’s Chapel provides a simplified version of the Sunday service for children ages 3-10 (must be potty trained). We have a wonderful volunteer team of seven leaders who rotate Sundays, helping each other to provide the best experience for our children in learning about God’s love. Units have included a study of the Ten Commandments and the Advent Wreath. It is our hope that offering a continuity of lessons will increase interest and attendance. The lead for this ministry is now Pam Steman. Coloring materials are now being supplied in the cart in the back of the church for children to use during services.
Choristers
Our Choristers program is open to all children, no music experience necessary! Rehearsals are Sundays from 9:45 - 10:30 AM. Every rehearsal will begin with a vocal warm-up, followed by learning and practicing upcoming songs. After a brief recess, choristers will then receive music theory instruction, a graduated curriculum where they will learn music fundamentals and how to read music at sight. Choristers will sing quarterly Sunday a.m. services with occasional special events on selected Sunday afternoons. For more information, please contact Charles Higgs, Director of Music Ministries, at music@staidans.org.
Vacation Bible School
Vacation Bible School Lovingkindness Luau ran M-F June 3-7, 2024, from 9a-12p. There were 15 children who attended and 18 adults who volunteered during the week. Several children sang a musical offering at the Peace on Sunday, June 9th. Each day the kids heard a Bible story, did a Lovingkindness in action service project, ate a delicious snack, did a yoga practice, played games, did crafts and sang some lovely songs. We folded 100 Operation Christmas child boxes, decorated, packed, and delivered care packages for nurses at the hospital, and painted and placed kindness rocks in the garden of the church grounds. St. Aidan’s church family came together with volunteers of all generations to love and care for the children of our church andcommunity. We are looking forward to VBS in the coming summer.
