Inspirica Sneaker Tree

New sneakers in the right size, such a given for most of us, are an incredible gift for a homeless child.

Sign up and buy for your chosen child. Sneakers may be returned to the box in Smith Hall by October 3. Contact Marianna Kilbride, marianna@godsacre.org, to learn more. 

Church School is Back!

We are so looking forward to opening our Church School doors to the young people of our church again on September 11. Join us at the 10:00 am service to kick off a year-long journey of cultivating connection, building faith, and finding joy in the opportunity to gather together each week. Nursery care is available for children aged two and under during the 8:00am and 10:00am services. Church school classes are offered for those ages 3 through 7th grade. We are excited and ready to meet or welcome back your wonderful children. 

Is your child feeling uncertain about church school? Join us before the 10:00am service on Sunday, September 11, from 9:00-10:00am for a Church School Sneak Peek! You and your child can play, connect with friends, meet the church school teachers, and even take a sneak peek at the church school classrooms before the service! Should your child benefit from specific accommodations or modifications to make their Church school experience the best it can be, please reach out to Lindsey at lindsey@godsacre.org. All are welcome.

We are thrilled to be welcoming our students and teachers back to Church School this fall!

Join us in the classroom during the 10:00am Worship Service for fellowship and faith development starting Sunday, September 12. Classes will be offered for children ages 3 through Grade 7 along with nursery care for age 2 and under. We plan to follow all NCPS Covid guidelines.

Register your child here today!

With the weather getting colder we find it important to heat the youth tent to ensure our kids won’t unnecessarily become sick. We look forward to seeing your children next Tuesday for Election Day Spectacular!
