Family Worship at Grace Presbyterian Church

Have you ever wanted to attend a worship service where children and adults praise God together while having fun and friendship learning how to better serve our God?

We welcome you to join our new Family Worship Service at 9:30 a.m. on Sunday morning. Our new service provides an opportunity for God's family to worship Him by creating a celebration and worship experience where children and adults of all ages participate. Here you will find a celebration where kids are encouraged to actively participate, play instruments, dance, and sing. Give them the opportunity to learn about worship through the example of their parent's, other adults and youth participants.

Come casual to our Family Worship Service! Here we sit together at tables, while exploring traditional Christian worship with prayer, scripture reading, song and a special lesson. Services may also include drama presentations such as Jonah & the Whale and Christ in Jerusalem (Palm Sunday). Services include a Family Activity time with craft projects, stories, or games for worshippers to participate in together.

Each Family Worship Service is geared to explore a central theme drawn from the Bible. Participants explore the theme and adopt a special "catch phrase" to help fully understand the teachings for that week. Participants also receive a Family Challenge for the coming week. The Family Challenge provides an opportunity for worshippers to further explore the Sunday message and theme throughout the week.

Hope to see you soon at our 9:30 a.m. Family Worship Service! Cheerios and juice are welcome also.

  SERVICES LET FAMILIES LEARN, WORSHIP TOGETHER
  Drums, keyboard and guitar sounds rose inside the Great Room at Grace Presbyterian Church. "Let's worship God," a musician in the eight-member band calls out from the stage. It's 9:30 a.m. on a Sunday, time for the church's new family worship service. The church started it in January as a way to help parents become stronger spiritual leaders in their children's lives.

  FAMILY-STYLE WORSHIP, -- INTER-GENERATIONAL SERVICES THAT INCLUDE CHILDREN AND ADULTS ARE A CHALLENGE E, BUT ONE WICHITA CHURCH IS DEDICATED TO MAKING THE IDEA WORK.
  Jessica and Brian Fleeman no longer have to spend only part of the worship service at Grace Presbyterian Church with their four children. With the launch of a new family worship service, the Fleemans and other Grace Presbyterian families can sing, pray, worship and learn as a family for the entire service in a setting apart from the sanctuary. "It's been a very good experience for our family," said Jessica Fleeman, whose children are ages 1 to 9.
