Sundays for a St. Helena's Kid
St. Helena's loves children of all ages. While children are welcome to stay in the worship service with their families, during the 9:00 and 11:00 a.m. services, we also have a Nursery available for children 5 yrs and under. Babies, toddlers, and preschoolers can be dropped off with our amazing Nursery staff before the service (8:45) and will be brought up to the service to join their family before Communion.
Each Sunday, children 5th grade and younger start in our worship spaces with their families, then join our Children’s Ministry Team at the beginning of the service (9:00 and 11:00 a.m.) when they are invited to "follow the cross" together and walk down to our Kids Church room. This is a short, age-appropriate time of worship and discussion of the week's Bible story or theme in an engaging, kid-friendly format. Children return to the service in time to take Communion with their families. Please reach out to Ms. Bethany at children@sthelenas.net if you have questions or would like to come be a part of this fun worship service.
Adults! Interested in spending one Sunday telling a Bible story, helping with art, or simply giving high-fives as kids enter the room? We’d love to have you! Reach out to Ms. Bethany about next steps.

This summer's Vacation Bible School is June 22nd - 25th, 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. We have classes for children 2 years old through rising 5th graders. These four days are centered around FAITH & FUN as kids are invited to explore the love of Jesus through Bible lessons, songs and worship, games, activities, and art.

Our Fine Arts Academy is July 20th - 24th, 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 pm. with classes for rising 1st graders - rising 8th graders. This is a time for recognizing God as the master creator and celebrating that because we are made in His image, we are made to be creators, as well! We will spend time discussing the Bible and our relationship to God as we explore different mediums and discover the creative talents we all have within. Kids do bring their lunches for Arts Academy since it's a bit longer, and more details will come soon.
