FUMC is quite fortunate to have quality facilities in the children's education wing where Sunday School, Mother's Day Out, and Kid's Korner are held. Child care to four years of age is provided during worship services and Sunday School. Sunday School begins at age two and continues in age/grade level classes. Lessons are Biblically based to provide the children with bible history, understanding, and knowledge as a basis for their lives. Children participate in worship as acolytes and during the Children's Moment at the chancel. In the fall FUMC celebrates Children's Sabbath involving children and youth in leadership roles in the worship service. Confirmation Class prepares sixth graders for church membership in the spring and is taught by the senior pastor and director of children's ministries. The focus of bonding the members in Christ through Methodist Church history, Christian ministry, personal decision making, etc., is presented in a wide variety of ways for their growth and experience. Kid's Korner provides creative actives which reinforce Christian teachings for one hour following Carol Choir. Vacation Bible School explores a different theme each summer and instructs preschool through sixth grade with youth and adults as mentors. United Methodist camps are offered to elementary and sixth graders during summer vacation. Mother's Day Out Child Care and Preschool is offered during the school year for children six weeks old through kindergarten age. Children from church and community are provided quality loving care, nurturing, and education in a Christian environment two days a week.
