Children’s Ministry – Galilee United Methodist Church

Ministry

Have fun at Children's Church! Our At Home Activities offer great lessons, games, and videos. Be sure to click the green button each week.

We worship through livestream on Sundays at 9am. Each livestream contains a special Children’s Message.

As the world returns to normal, we’re also offering 10:30am in-person worship beginning May 30. This will be family worship, so everyone will be in the sanctuary together and there will be no nursery or Sunday School to begin with.

In addition Sunday worship, each week we offer at home activities for kids and families that you can do with your little ones to delve into the week’s Bible message.

Calling all little ones! This summer we’ve got a BRAND NEW program just for you – Galilee Summer Crew!

Join us for outdoor exploration, games and devotionals, and service to the community.

If you’re interested in volunteering or learning more, email our Children’s Coordinator Suzie Leftwich at suzie.leftwich@galileeumc.org.

Sunday for Galilee Kids

Every Sunday (in normal times, when we’re fully open and there is no pandemic) we engage children in an active and creative environment to teach the Bible at age-appropriate levels. Our children’s Sunday School runs during the Grow Hour (10:15-10:55) with classes offered for preschool, K-1st grade, 2nd-3rd grade, and 4th-5th grade. All grades’ lessons are coordinated so that families can discuss the same Biblical passages together during the week.

See our events page for current Galilee Kids opportunities.
