Grow through teaching
K - 6th grade
Nursery. Our pastor often says that the nursery is the most sacred space in our Church. It’s where the youngest of God’s children begin their journey of faith. Our nursery coordinator provides a safe, clean environment for babies from birth to 3 years old every Sunday morning during the 9:30am worship service.
Children’s Ministry. Taryn Noelle serves as SCC’s Director of Children’s Ministry serving children from 4 to 5 th grade and we have several programs throughout the year. Our mainstay is Children’s Church beginning in the 9:30am worship service and then children are dismissed to Sunday School for the remainder of the service. Taryn makes sure that she combines learning about God and fun, and there’s usually snacks too! SCC has hosted a start-to-the-summer Bible Camp for years. 2020 and 2021 were certainly challenging years for Bible Camp, but we held Camp in creative, innovative and, most importantly, safe ways. While our Bible Camp is focused on the younger campers, we invite middle and high-school students to help during the week. Spark Afterschool Program is a newly launched 6-week afterschool program held in our Fellowship Hall. Its intent is a continuation of Sunday School and incorporating music and theater into learning. Meanwhile, events and activities are always happening for our children from participating in Stowe’s Forth of July parade to our annual Christmas Pageant, and Christmas Even Service. This year, we’re having an Easter Egg Hunt! Please check in with Taryn for additional information. taryn@stowecommunitychurch.org.
