NEW Children’s “Sermon Bulletins” are now Available:
WEPC strives to assist parents in the training of their children in worship. In so doing, we now provide TWO weekly Children’s Bulletins that are renewed every week and that generally align with the preached text. One of them is designed for our youngest regular worshipers (4 years old to 6 years old) and the other is designed for older children. You will find these bulletins at the “Life at West End” Information Center in the gallery.

Children’s Worship
Where: Room 128 & 125
Time: During the 10:30 service, from the beginning of the sermon to the end of the service. No Children’s Worship on the first Sunday of the month so that our children can learn about the Lord’s Supper by the modeling of their parents.
Who: Four Year Olds through First Graders
Description: Teaching our littlest friends how to worship Jesus is an important task. Children’s Worship has the distinct purpose of using age-appropriate tools to bring our children to the cross. This is not a time to “study,” nor is it a time to “play,” but it is a time to worship our King. All four year olds through First Graders are to attend worship with their parents. Children will be dismissed at the beginning of the sermon. If your child is not registered, please accompany your child back to Room 128 to register them. Just after the service, please pick up Preschoolers in Room 125, and Kindergarteners and 1st Graders in Room 128. Lilli Benko is leading this ministry.

Worship of the Family of God
Where: Sanctuary
Time: 9:00 service & 10:30 service
Who: All are welcome!
Description: Worship is what we are created for. This is an opportunity for all of God’s people to worship and enjoy Him. All second graders and older are to remain in the Sanctuary for the duration of worship. There are Children’s Bulletins and crayons on the Information Table to help you train your child to worship. Jesus welcomed the littlest children into His arms. And if they squirmed and yelled out, He still loved them. So if your little child squirms and yells out, as a congregation WEPC says, “Amen! God is working!”
