Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is offered for children 3-6 after the processional and before the Eucharist.
​
The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a common religious experience involving children and adults in which the religious values of childhood, primarily those values of contemplation and enjoyment of God, are predominant. This experience is shared in a place particularly prepared for the religious life of children called the Atrium.
​
It is based on the teaching of Maria Montessori and is a data driven, scripturally grounded system for helping young children travel with God.

What to expect
​
We want you to feel at home, so please, come as you are. As a first-time guest, an usher will greet you and can connect you to a friend to answer any questions you have and guide you through the service. If you prefer, we will hold space for you while you worship without interference.
​
All Baptized people may receive the Eucharist. If you wish to receive a blessing only, cross your arms over your chest. To receive a blessing in addition to Eucharist, tap your forehead.
