DGFUMC provides a range of educational opportunities for children of all ages, including nursery care provided during worship hours, Pathfinders (Sunday School), and midweek family fellowship that is linked to children's choir rehearsals. The goal is to help children grow in faith, and become familiar with the Bible through a variety of methods, including storytelling and drama, music, video, games, science, cooking and art.
This Christmas season we are again partnering with ChildServ and the People's Resource Center to provide gifts for those in need. Stop by the Parlor and pick a tag from one of the trees.
The cooking team of Don Safford, Bill Chalberg, and Susan Newman will be back for a Home Cookin' meal. All are invited to join us for this special family meal between 5:00 - 6:30 p.m. This meal is always awesome and the fellowship is fantastic!
Sunday School begins on September 15 and Sunday School registration cards are due this week! Bring your registration card (mailed to all families along with Choir Registration information) to the church office during office hours to sign up. Every family needs to register annually, as this is how we collect emergency and allergy information for each child.
The First United Methodist Preschool announces the retirement of two teachers. Karen Dortwegt is retiring after 23 years and Beth Schloss is retiring after 15 years of service. They have touched so many young lives!
Join us this August for Rolling River Rampage. Children will pretend to go on a whitewater rafting adventure to experience the ride of a lifetime with God! Along the river, children discover that life with God is an adventure full of wonder and surprise, and that they can trust God to be with them through anything. Relevant music, exciting science, creative crafts, fun recreation, and memorable Bible stories will help kids know that God is always with them as they ride the rapids of amazing grace!
Grab your Easter basket and hop on over to hunt for eggs at DGFUMC! There will be 500 eggs hidden in the church! All children are invited. Bring the entire family and a friend or two and enjoy refreshments and fellowship.
