Fun, Food, Friends and Faith
An exciting after school program for community children (through 6th grade)
When? Wednesdays after school, beginning Wednesday, September 21, at approximately 3:05pm when the school bus or parents drop the children off.
Where? Grace Lutheran Church, Highway 26 in South Range, 906-482-2011.
Why? To provide another option for families in the community who would like their children engaged in positive and enjoyable after school activities.
What? The tentative schedule for this fun and educational event is as follows:
3:05pm Welcome and Snack
3:15pm Music and Dancing
3:40pm Bible Lesson and Craft
5:00 pm Closing
5:15pm All children MUST be picked up
We anticipate the children being picked up by parents or authorized adult no later than 5:15pm. Of course, children may be picked up earlier for your convenience. You are also welcome to visit at any time during the program year.
Who is it for? Not limited to members of Grace Lutheran Church, the after school program is for all area children who are not yet in the 7th grade.
Who is in charge? Katie Bridgers is coordinating this program which will be staffed by congregation and community volunteers.
What’s the gimmick? No cost to you this is FREE! This program is as straight forward as presented here. Many families in the area want a safe and helpful setting where their children can learn about God’s love. Contributing to the faith development of children is our goal at Grace Lutheran, where we strive to serve our community.
*Although the weekly bible story will be told by Pastor Sally Wilke and other lay leaders, of Grace Lutheran, there will be no particular denominational focus. In the fall, the stories will come from the Old Testament and will tell of God’s continual love and faithfulness for all people. After Christmas, the stories will come from the New Testament and will speak of the coming of Jesus and his work on earth among the people.
Please call with questions, concerns or stop by the church to see the curriculum and learn more about the program. Church phone #: 482-2011. Speak to Katie. If you’d like to register your child(ren), please complete the attached form and return to the church office prior to their first attendance.
