CHILDREN & YOUTH
Youth Sunday School
Youth (6th - 12th grades) worship with their families during the worship service as integrated participants in the life of the church. During the Sunday School hour, youth usually meet on the second floor (take the elevator and make a left) for a time of fellowship and learning. During the time of social distancing, the youth Sunday School has not been meeting.
Children's Sunday School
Bethany’s Sunday school classes offer children who are 5 years old- 5th grade a biblical foundation through scripture and interactive activities. Each class is divided by age/grade level. Sunday school runs through the whole calendar year. During this time of social distancing, we have been meeting during the Sunday School hour from 9:45-10:45. Junior church at present is suspended.
Children’s Church
Before Worship begins, children ages 2 to 12 can go downstairs in room 9 for a child-oriented worship. A short video, snack, craft and lesson is provided by two trained volunteers.
Children’s Library
The Bethany Children’s Library is a wonderful place to sit and relax – take a minute to read or take a minute to take a book home with you to read. Our Children’s Library is located in the bottom floor (Room 14) and is open any time the church is open. We have books and DVD’s for children of all ages. Be sure to check it out!
Bethany Church of Berwick aspires to be a safe, loving atmosphere to share the love of Christ with everyone who participates in our children's and vulnerable adults' programs. To best care for our children, vulnerable adults, volunteers, and staff Bethany Church of Berwick requires everyone working with children and vulnerable adults to complete our Safe Sanctuaries process.
Our Safe Sanctuaries Policy includes screening and background checks on all adult volunteers and staff working with young people in any capacity, training on preventing and recognizing abuse and reporting procedures, and building usage guidelines to ensure the safety and security of each child.
