Holy Communion strives to provide purposeful, meaningful Christian formation that gives children the opportunity to grow in the knowledge and love of God by exploring tradition, liturgy, and scripture.
Sunday Morning Activities
Children’s formation is offered 9:15-10:15 a.m. See class details below.
Children’s Chapel is offered during the 10:30 AM service, and is designed especially for ages Pre-K – 2nd Grade. Children are invited to join the opening procession behind the Children’s Banner, and will rejoin “big church” at the passing of the Peace. Adults (not just parents) and EYC youth (one or two per Sunday) are also welcome to participate with our little ones as we receive the Word of God through song, story, reflection, and activities.
Our Nursery is operated by staff and vetted volunteers who care for newborns, infants, and children up to 3 years old during Sunday morning activities. The nursery is available Sundays 9:00 a.m. - noon and for special events as announced.
The Nursery is in Room 213 of the Children’s Suite.
Special Activities
Special events throughout the year include St. Nicholas Night, Christmas Eve Pageant, Easter Egg Hunt, and kids’ activities during our annual Book It 5K (late summer). Call (901) 767-6987 for details on upcoming events!
Child Safety
Safeguarding God’s Children is a curriculum that aims to keep kids safe at church. All clergy, lay staff, vestry members, and volunteers who work with children train regularly in the prevention of child sexual abuse. Anyone else who wants to be trained is welcome to do so, and to be a part of Holy Communion’s congregation-wide effort to protect our youngest disciples.
Contact our Children's Minister, Drew Massengale, for more information or to volunteer.
