Children’s Church
During Worship: From the Lessons to the Passing of the Peace

Children's church will not meet on the following Sundays:
11/26/06, 12/24/06, 12/31/06, and 4/8/07.

Children age 3 and up are invited to hear the sermon at their own level at Children’s Church. The lessons are targeted for children in early elementary, but are flexible enough that older children can grasp the deeper meaning. Children will be dismissed as a group and brought back as a group before communion. Children’s Church is located in our nursery… the school library.

Our Worship Teams

Choir – Tree of Life loves to sing! Our choir sings a variety of special selections. We welcome singers and instrumentalists that are interested to come to choir rehearsal, which is held at the Ministry Center after service. For more information, contact Duane Dillard.

Altar Guild – Our Altar Guild prepares the altar, or table, for Sunday Service. They keep the candles current, wash the linens, work with the paraments (the special colored cloths draped over the altar), prepare communion and bake our communion bread. To help, contact Mary Jane Schiedt.

Ushers – Our Ushers work in pairs of two. They bring our worship supplies to Brick Mill Elementary. During the service, they pass out worship binders, direct worship attendees to available seats, dismiss people for communion and help visitors find their way to the nursery or Children’s Church. To help, contact our scheduler Nancy Nadel.

Readers – Are you skilled at public reading? Join our Readers. Once each month our readers read the lessons for that Sunday, help with communion, lead the announcements and send us out with our mission. To help, contact our scheduler Nancy Nadel.

Acolytes – What is an acolyte? A fancy name for those who light the candles, get the offering plates and help with communion. This special job is reserved for Middle and High School Youth. Sign up today. To help, contact our scheduler Nancy Nadel.

Worship and Music Committee – Ever wonder how our services are planned? Did you enjoy sending notes to our troops or learning about the “eye of the needle?” Come and visit a Worship and Music Committee meeting, and you can help plan too. Creativity is welcome. We meet the 4th Tuesday of each month, 7 p.m. at the TOL ministry center. To help, contact Sylvia Schill, our chair person.
