Sunday Mornings
|
At Bainbridge FUMC, we desire to nurture your child, assisting you in bringing them to a solid understanding of what it means to be a Christian. We focus on who God is and how he interacts with each of us.
Similar to our blended approach of traditional and contemporary worship styles, our children’s ministries combine various formats for Sunday School and a more contemporary format for Children’s Walk Out during worship service. |
The following classes are available:

Sunday Evenings - Children's Fellowship
Sunday evenings, children, 1st grade through 5th grade are invited to join in a time of fellowship and learning. Come join in various studies throughout the year discovering God's Word and how to make him come alive in your heart and life. We begin at 5:00 p.m. with Snack Supper and move at 5:30 p.m. to begin our study and fellowship time.

Vacation Bible School
We are the only church in our area doing a morning Vacation Bible School. We take a full five days to encourage our children in the word of God ending with an assembly program for family and friends on Friday. Come join us this Friday, June 8, at 11:15 a.m. to experience what our children have learned!
Summer Rest and Road Trips
During the summer break, the children gather together on Wednesdays to participate in fun activities at the church or take fun day trips out of town.
Summer Camps at Epworth By The Sea
Someone once said that kids can learn more about their relationship with Jesus in a week of camp than they might in a year of Sunday School. Because of that, we take our time with our campers very seriously. Days are filled with outdoor activities like the ropes course, boat rides, dock fishing, games, art, beach trips and pool time. Nightly camp-wide competitions bring everyone together and each evening closes with a worship service. Woven throughout each of these activities is a greater purpose—sharing Christ's love with every camper we encounter.
Each week of summer camp costs $315. The dates for this year’s camps will be posted soon.
