Growing in Faith from the Very Beginning

A Place For Children To Learn And Belong

At St. Mary's, our Children's Ministries nurtures young hearts in a safe, loving, and faith-filled environment. We partner with families to help children experience God's love, learn the stories of Scripture, and grow in kindness, compassion, and curiosity about faith.

Prayground

While Sunday School is out for the summer, the Prayground is available during the 9:00 am contemporary service. A Prayground is an intentional space in the front of the church where, through age-appropriate means, young children can experience and engage in worship. Soft toys, crafts, and activities are available. All children are invited to join us on the carpet!
