Children's Sermon
During the 9:30 and 11:00 Sunday worship services, children of the church are invited to come to the front of the sanctuary to listen to a special message. This message is delivered so that children (and adults) can gain a simpler, basic understanding of scriptural principles.

We have a great group of acolytes serve at our 11:00 a.m. worship service. They are in integral part of our worship experience.

Sunday School
Sunday School classes meet from 9:30 to 10:30 each Sunday morning. Age graded classes include children from 2 years of age through 5th grade.
Every Sunday, the kindergarten through fifth graders will begin in the sanctuary during the 9:30 a.m. service. They will be dismissed to their Sunday school class after a message for young Christians.

Church Picnic
SPC hosts a church picnic for all members and friends of the church each year in the fall. A primary focus is for the children to enjoy a fun time and excellent "picnic food," and for adults to meet new people and enjoy fellowshipl. Adults volunteer to organize classic picnic games, carnival-type activities and other enjoyable events. A fun, family fellowship event!
