Children are totally and completely welcome at Holy Apostles.
A Child’s Relationship with God
Children are created by God, loved by God, nourished by God,
encouraged by God and their unique relationships with
God are deepened by experiencing what it means to be God’s people in the world.

This Little Light, Sundays at 8:30 am
Children’s relationship with God begins when they are born and grows as they grow. Our toddler service allows for the time and space for little ones, alongside their parents, to joyfully encounter God through story, prayer, song and the Eucharist.
Please note the time change for this service. It now begins at 8:30am.
Sunday School
The children in our Sunday school will deepen their relationship with God through Holy Scripture by learning stories and learning how to tell their own versions of these stories. The children will spend a week or two learning stories, and then a week or two drawing stories to create a graphic novel that will span the entire year.
Our hope is that in creating a year-long project where the children are writing, drawing and telling the stories that they will both fully learn the stories and begin to consider where God is in their lives.
Ideally, children are attending regularly and have the chance to learn the stories and then draw them into their books. At home families can read the stories together and develop a practice of reading scripture and praying together.
Bible Stories will include:
- Moses
- Creation
- Jesus’ baptism
- Annunciation
- Jesus is born
- The passion
- The resurrection
- Feeding of the 5,000
- Malala Yousefazi
- Martin Luther King Jr.
