Announcement on Measles Concerns & Response - We are OPEN FOR CHURCH THIS WEEKEND!
With the recent outbreak of measles in Hamilton County we are being proactive to help keep your family safe. We are taking every precaution possible to protect the health of our church community. Measles is easily spread from infected individuals to people who are not immune. Please take this opportunity to place the health of your family first.
We will be opening the Babies and Preschool Ministry for this weekend. Please understand that we cannot assure that we are a measles free facility. We recommend that any child that has not been immunized stay home for at least one more week.
Our facilities are completely safe and sanitized; this measure is due to the person-to-person nature of measles transmission. In other words, per the advisement of the Indiana Department of Health, we encourage participation only if you fit these criteria:

At age 2 & 3 years, children learn that God made all things and that God cares for him or her; that Jesus is God's special Son and that He did kind and loving things when He lived on earth; that the Bible is a special book about God and Jesus and that Bible stories are true.
At age 4 & 5 years, children learn basic information about God: He made the world, He cares for all people, and forgives us when we are sorry for doing wrong. Children will also learn that Jesus died to take punishment for the wrong things we have done and that He rose from the dead and is alive. Children are taught that the Bible tells us to obey God and that we can talk to God in prayer.
We follow the same teaching plan as the "Big Idea" team uses for adult services, but in an age-appropriate way. That way, families can discuss the lesson together!
We offer several Baby Dedication Services throughout the year. Learn more about Baby Deciation HERE.
