Children at All Saints
At All Saints, we believe that children are an important part of the church. The grace of God’s covenant and the promise of God’s Spirit extend not just to us, but also to our children (Genesis 17:7-8; Acts 2:38-39). We want to follow the example of Jesus, who said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them” (Matthew 19:14).
We therefore welcome children at all our services, and we encourage them to participate in our worship. Of course, we realize that babies and young children sometimes need a break for feeding and so on. We therefore have a separate space near the sanctuary where parents can take children when necessary. Our goal is to encourage our children to participate in worship as they are able from their earliest days, so that as they grow they always know the joy of meeting with God and his people.
