Asbury offers three Sunday morning worship services: 8:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. Traditional Worship in the sanctuary and 11:00 a.m. Modern Worship in Williams Chapel. A Children’s Moment (like the one in the video above) is offered in each service.
Children are always welcome in worship! (In fact, parents, you are the number one faith influencers in a child’s life – it’s great practice for kids to see you worship!) However, if you would like your kindergarten through second graders to have more focused worship education, our pastors will invite them to attend Children’s Church in Room 214 (just outside Asbury’s gym) where, for about 30 minutes, they’ll learn that God loves them through praise songs, Bible stories, and activities.
Kids who want to be involved in our Traditional Worship services also have the opportunity to carry in the light and God’s Holy word as acolytes and Bible bearers. Training sessions are held several times throughout the year – ask Amanda for details!
Save the Dates
We start practicing for our Children’s Christmas Pageant happening on Sunday, December 20 at 11AM in Modern this Wednesday, October 28! This pageant is a “y’all come” meaning that all kids who are present are encouraged to help us bring the story to life by dressing in costume as angels, animals, shepherds, and wise people. If your child wants to have a speaking or special singing role, they need to register ASAP. Registration for those roles closes this week. We know it is early, but these roles are very important leadership roles for this special service, and we want kids to be well prepared and confident in sharing the story of Jesus’ birth with our church family! Register here!
Open Gym on Monday, November 23! Spots are limited, register today! Kids kindergarten through 5th grade will make some fun fall and Thanksgiving crafts, play in the gym, have a movie option, and hang out with friends. Your kids will have a super fun day, and you get an extra day to do whatever YOU need to do!
Need Nursery Care?
Located across the hall from Williams Chapel, Asbury’s nursery is designed for infants, toddlers, and children up to age 4. It’s available to parents Sunday mornings from 8:00 a.m. to noon and Wednesday Nights from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. (when our Adult, Students, Kids, and Music Ministries meet for Bible study, small groups, and rehearsals). The nursery is also available during many church-wide events. Learn more about what to expect when you arrive.
Sunday School, 9:45 to 10:45 a.m.
Age-specific Sunday School classes are offered for all children with engaging Bible lessons, fun activities, and discussion that reinforces the lesson. Infants, toddlers, and kids up to age four meet in age-appropriate classrooms in the nursery. Kindergarten through fifth grade students meet in Room 214 for fellowship, worship, and then break into small groups in individual classrooms.
When Sunday School concludes at 10:45 a.m., here’s where you’ll find us: Infants/Early Walkers: Room 203 Toddlers: Room 204 Two-year-olds: Room 206 Three-year-olds: Room 207 Four-year-olds: Room 208 Kindergarten: Room 218 First & Second Grade: Room 212/213 Third Grade: Room 215/216 Fourth & Fifth Grade: Room 214
Wednesday Nights, 6:00 to 7:15 p.m.
All children are invited to know and experience God’s love through an engaging Bible lesson, and small groups on Wednesday nights. Plus, every month we do Wandering Wednesdays – special outings just for preteens (fourth and fifth graders). The next Wandering Wednesday date is October 21!
