Saturdays & Sundays

• Curriculum is adapted as needed for each child. 
• Parents are welcome to visit our Sunday School classrooms with their child(ren) while a Buddy-match is determined. 

To request a Buddy for your child, please complete the Student Information Form and return it to: Beth Lang (Assistant Director of Children’s Ministry) . Please call Beth (wk 303-256-1223) if you have any questions or need more information.

Ministry to Parents

Saturdays & Sundays

• Parents can attend our worship services (Saturdays in the Worship Center at 4:30pm and 6:05pm and Sundays in the Worship Center and The Upper Room at 9:00am & 10:45am) while their children are in Sunday School with a Buddy.

Wednesdays

• Parents can attend one of several Bible studies while their children are in TRU or Awana with a Buddy. Bible studies are offered from 7 – 8:30pm weekly.

Thursdays

• Every other Thursday night, we host a Support/Prayer Group for parents of children with special needs from 6:30 – 8pm. 
• New attendees are always welcome. 
• The group is designed to create a community that provides encouragement and fellowship, shares resources and brings struggles to the foot of God’s throne of grace. 
• Doing Bible studies and reading and discussing books written by and for parents of children with special needs are some of the activities the group has undertaken. 
• Bible classes for children with special needs (ages birth – adult) and their siblings are offered at the same time as the parent group and are led by special educators, volunteers and childcare workers.

Youth/Adult Ministry

Sundays

• Youth and adults with special needs are welcome to attend worship services in both the Worship Center and The Upper Room with their families (Saturdays in the Worship Center at 4:30pm and 6:05pm and Sundays in the Worship Center and The Upper Room at 9:00am & 10:45am).

Thursdays

• During the Parent Support Group, a Bible class for adults with special needs is offered and led by special educators and volunteers.
• The class provides adapted Bible curriculum, activities and fellowship time and is open to youth and adults ages 14+. 
• Parents are welcome to join the Support Group or take time for themselves on-site in our lobby. Our plan is that parents will be able to eventually take advantage of this time as respite off-site.
