what's here for families?

Westchester Chapel's family ministries
includes a wide variety of activities and opportunities and they are
expanding all the time. Some are offered more regularly and some are
scheduled depending on the needs of those in the congregation. We offer
pre-marital counseling, marriage preparation classes, child dedication
celebrations, small group Bible studies for men and women, and classes
designed to help us with raising Godly kids and surviving the teen
years.
NURSERY (for ages birth to 6)
Our Nursery Program is available every Sunday
from 11am until the end of our worship service. The Nursery is a warm
and loving place! The trained staff not only engages the children in
play, but teaches simple Bible concepts from prepared curriculum that
begin to form the foundations of faith. Our Nursery is well beyond
"babysitting"...our babies are actually learning the Bible and we've
seen that it really make a difference in their young lives!
CHILDREN & YOUTH
Activities have included small groups
for girls and boys, over-night activity nights, seasonal trips, retreats
and summer camps, trips to the Amish Country, "Girls
Nights", Overnight activities at the church, trips to concerts,
and opportunties to serve others on Missions Trips. We created the following clip as a part of a sketch illustrating how we want to help your kids grow...

CHILDREN, YOUTH & CHURCH INVOLVEMENT
Unlike some churches, we are not afraid to
involve our kids in our worship services! The kids and teens at
Westchester Chapel are regularly encouraged to use their creative gifts
and abilities to bring life to the worship services. This can involve
drama, video, music and singing, operating computers for visual
presentations, producing artwork and on and on! And by the
way, we don't do this as a "token" gesture to involve the kids. We've
discovered that church life and our worship services are much better if
our kids are using their talents to serve God and each other! We're
learning a lot from them!
