Lynnewood offers an exciting worship opportunity for children in kindergarten through 5th grade.  Many parents have expressed an interest in seeing their elementary aged children provided with an age-appropriate, spiritually based activity during the 10:30 a.m. worship service.

“Come, Follow Me!: A Worship Program for Teaching the Gospel to Children” is a hands-on discovery approach that teaches children how to worship God by allowing them to DO IT.

Please encourage your elementary aged children to join us in the Fellowship Hall after the Children’s Moment in the 10:30 a.m. worship service for this adventure!  They will be ready to join their families at the same time that the adult worship service ends.

All adults are encouraged to take part by volunteering to assist one Sunday per month.  Please look for the sign-up sheet in the Sunday bulletins!
 

Coinciding with the school year, at the 10:30am worship hour, Lynnewood United Methodist Church offers traditional Sunday school classes.  The children are grouped by age in individual classrooms.  Age appropriate lessons are created and presented by a team of dedicated and enthusiastic adult teachers.  Weekly class programs include a bible lesson, stories, group discussion time, interactive activities and crafts. 

We look forward to your children joining us in a warm, welcoming environment.  Classrooms are located at the back of the education building, which is across the courtyard from our sanctuary.  For more information please contact our Children’s Ministry Coordinator.

 

The Sunday Morning Class is held at 9:00 a.m. in the Library during the school year.  This on-going group Bible study group is facilitated by Mark Oldaker. 

 

Classes run Wednesdays from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.. The class will study favorite bible passages and each class will be independent of any of the others, so you do not have to commit to attending every session.  It will be held in the Church Library and led by Paul Henshaw. 

 

  • Soul Sisters - Our Sunday morning fellowship group invites you to join us in the library each Sunday morning from 9:00 a.m. during the school year.  We are a loosely led discussion group who enjoys sharing and supporting one another through prayers and conversations exploring what it means to be a modern Christian woman of any age. Come get better acquainted with some very special Lynnewood ladies!

 

  • Co-ed Book Group  -

    The next Coed Book Group will meet on Tuesday June 12 at the Rigge's home in Pleasanton from 7-8:30pm. It's the perfect time for new people to join as we're excited to begin reading a new selection: American Gospel: The Founding Fathers and the Making of a Nation, by Jon Meacham.

                            As stated by Publisher's Weekly (See Amazon.com for further comments):

     "Historian and Newsweek editor Meacham's third book examines over 200 years of American history in its quest to prove the idea of religious tolerance, along with the separation of church and state, is "perhaps the most brilliant American success." Meacham's principal focus is on the founding fathers, and his insights into the religious leanings of Jefferson, Franklin, Adams and Co. present a new way of considering the government they created."

     The book traverses the history of our government and examines the debate we still have today between religion and government. It's gotten great reviews for it's provocative writing, and will be great for group discussions. Please join us!
