Deck the Halls

December 1

Dunwoody United Methodist Church Children's Ministry is delighted to welcome you to create an Advent story kit to celebrate the season with your family! This is a great way for families to start talking about the meaning of the season and a fun time of safely-distanced fellowship! Arrive at the Fellowship Hall anytime between 5 - 7 pm and work for as short or as long as you'd like on the projects. If you prefer to grab and go, let us know and we'll have take-home kits available.

Club 45 Evenings

Sundays, Sept. 12 - Dec. 12, 5:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.
Club 45 Evenings offer 4th and 5th graders a monthly meeting aimed solely at their age group. We’ll use the monthly Children’s theme used in all other programming for the month, but delivered in a single worship service. In addition, the kids will fellowship across a meal and participate in interactive activities aimed at digging deeper into the lesson and building community.

This is a drop off event, but please walk your child(ren) to the meeting space to check in before leaving.

Cherub Preschool Choir

Wednesdays, 4:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Children's Choir Room
Open to preschoolers ages 3 (by Sept. 1) through 4 years old. Children are introduced to singing in their “singing voice”, playing rhythm instruments, and what it means to be a choir. The children learn that through music even the youngest of God’s children can participate in worship.

Wednesdays, 5:00 p.m. - 5:45 p.m.

Special events for the year include concerts, Christmas Eve services and community outreach.

Faith at Home

We love having your children with us, and we work to have as many opportunities to connect as possible. However, we know that out of all the waking hours of the week, we’re only going to get 1-3 hours to help your kids know about the love of God. In that light, we are happy to provide you with ideas, materials and techniques to help build faith at home! Each week in Sunday school, we provide some questions for discussion. We encourage families to talk about them at home! Check out our Facebook page each Monday for a summary of the lesson to help spark discussion throughout the week!
