Note from the Director

Welcome

The Children’s Ministry at HIEC is a vibrant and meaningful space for children to learn about and experience God through games, activities, crafts, science experiments, music, liturgy, discussion, and prayer. Children in pre-K- 5th grade meet for Sunday school in our Children’s classroom wing from 9-10:00 AM. Nursery care is available and provided by paid staff during Sunday morning worship and Sunday school, and Children's Chapel meets during the 10:15 AM service, processing out at the gospel reading and returning after the sermon during the exchange of peace. On behalf of our entire children's ministry team, I am delighted to welcome your family on Sunday mornings and can't wait to connect! Email me with any questions anytime.
