Programs for Children

 Kidbury UMC and Children’s Church

SUMC’s children’s program includes educational games, crafts, books, and puzzles for all ages. Kidbury UMC is in Hawes Hall and is open from 9:15-9:45am as well as after worship each Sunday.

  • Each week, Kidbury UMC offers games, crafts, and puzzles for children age 4 through 5th grade.

  • Kidbury pauses each week at 9:45 a.m. so that kids, parents, and leaders have time to get to worship* and re-opens during Coffee Hour after worship, so children can leave their projects in Kidbury while they go to church.

*During worship, we offer Children’s Church for kids age 4 through 2nd grade beginning right after the children’s moment in worship. For younger children, childcare is available in the nursery above the sanctuary (the ushers can show you where to go). There are activity bags available for older children who stay in the main worship service.
