Q: What should I do with my baby on Sunday mornings?
A: All children are welcome at every worship service.
Q: When should my child be baptized?
A: Baptizing infants and children is traditional in the church, and we would love for your child to be baptized at Good Shepherd. Many parents choose a convenient date within the first year to have their child baptized. Holy Baptism at Good Shepherd is a very special time and takes place in the midst of a public service of worship.
Q: When does my baby go to Sunday school?
A: Sunday school begins with children who turn three by July 1. Classes are formed in September for the year. Classes meet from 10:00-10:45.
Q: Should I volunteer to help?
A: That would be great! We are always looking for parents who are willing to help out if needed teaching Sunday School.
