Children's News

This page contains the latest "general"
news related to MPUMC's Children's Ministries and Programs. For more information on specific children's activities (i.e., choirs, Sunday schools, nursery schedules, VBS, etc.),
you may also want to visit our Children's Programs page!

Rotation Sunday School. We need teachers! Esther: December 28 to January 25.

Shepherds. The 2nd graders need a shepherd!

Dates to Remember:

  • January 16 - Parent’s Night Out at Concord UMC. Please make your reservation by the Wednesday prior to PNO.

  • February 20 - Parent’s Night Out (MPUMC)

Weekly Reminders:

Baby Rose. Before coming back to church with your new baby, please call the church office by Tuesday so we can order a rose honoring your baby.

Baby Bulletin Board. Please send Ann a picture of your baby with the full name and date of birth on the back if he/she is younger than 1 year, and we don’t have one. Everyone enjoys looking at the newest additions to our church family.

Pagers. We now have pagers for the Nursery area. Please sign your children in using the pager system if they are under the age of 1 year. If your child is “uneasy” in the nursery area and the pager helps, please use one. It takes children time to adjust to a new setting. Our visitors should always use a pager because we don’t know the babies and it is nice to be able to get in touch if we have a question. The pager system is located in the Nursery area and is staffed by adult volunteers.

Ink Cartridges. Bring your “empty” ink cartridges to us. There is a bin outside The Mouse Pad for you to drop them off or take them to the  office. They will be recycled so that we can purchase additional materials for the computer.

Rotation Sunday School for 2008. Check your calendars and volunteer for Rotation Sunday School. Look at your calendar and find the best weeks for you. It is a wonderful opportunity for you to meet the children your children worship with on Sunday.

Background Checks. Background checks are mandatory for people involved in Children’s Ministry. If you have not completed an application, please see Ann as soon as possible. Mike Moses is handling the background checks. Safe Sanctuary training is typically held the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 6:15-7:00 in the Sanctuary. All who work with children are required to attend and complete the volunteer application. This is for the safety of our children as well as the safety of those working with children.
