"You are a child of God," said Nelson Mandela.

We at First Church believe that and focus our Sunday School on that idea. Children learn Bible stories through a variety of ways: acting, art projects, puppetry, music. And watching films (while munching fresh popcorn).

Children join their families for the first fifteen minutes of worship and then leave with their teacher for the sunny upstairs classrooms. After service, families meet their children at the coffee hour.

Very young children and infants are cared for during the entire service in the upstairs Nursery by a wise, patient, and loving grandmother.

First Church reaches out to the community by offering a free program, Story Time with Puppets, to Germantown’s day care centers. Directors of day care programs may call Rhu McBee for information on the program.
