Children and youth are welcome and valued at UCC Longmont. We believe that children aren’t just the future of the church, they’re an important part of our community right now. We work hard to include them in all things.
During the school year, Children's Church will gather each Sunday except for the first Sunday of the month, which is intergenerational. Children will begin in the sanctuary with their grown-ups and be invited to join Children's Church after Bringing in the Light. The nursery is available for pre-k and younger. Middle and high school students are welcome to be helpers in the Children's Church classroom.
Please contact office@ucclongmont.org or one of the pastors if you have questions.
- In community worship, young people Bring in the Light every Sunday and are involved in leading as liturgists, communion servers and ushers. We believe that community worship is important, which is why children are always welcome to stay in the sanctuary and worship with their families. (You’ll hear Pastor Amelia or Pastor Sarah make that announcement every single Sunday.)
- There’s a table with activity bags, books and coloring pages at the back of the sanctuary.
- We also have a staffed nursery at the back of the sanctuary for the convenience and comfort of kids and their parents. This room has toys, a crib and comfortable adult furniture. Feel free to use it anytime but know that it’s just as common to see kids working their wiggles off in back of the sanctuary or standing in the aisle to get a better view of what’s happening in front.
