Those who are led by the Spirit of God are
children of God
Romans 8:14
At Saint Mary’s, we are committed to the spiritual formation of the children in our community. Our Guiding RAY program provides fun and interactive religious instruction for Pre K through Fifth grade.
Please refer to the children’s calendar for the WINTER-SPRING schedule which also includes a few parish-wide special events.
We begin our regular Sundays at 9:30 am in the lower level of the parish house. This is a time for the children to come together for free play, making friends, sharing, singing, and special visitors. Guiding RAY classes begin at 10:00 am and our lessons are based on the Lectionary Story Bible.
Childcare for babies and toddlers (up to 3 years) is provided in the Nursery.
At 10:45 am the children will join their parents in the church building to celebrate the Eucharist. There is a “Quiet Box” in the rear of the church filled with books, puzzles, coloring, etc. for those children who need a quiet activity during the more contemplative part of the service.
Guiding RAY is a cooperative program so we hope all parents will volunteer in some way. Whether you choose to teach, substitute, help with a movie day or special event your efforts will be greatly appreciated.
