OUR PRESENCE: GUESTS Your children ages 4-12 are invited to join us for Children’s Church each Sunday immediately after Wiggle Time for Children during our worship services. After Wiggle Time, our children’s ministers escort the children to the Education Building for age appropriate, Christian education and fun activities. Your children are always welcome to stay for our regular services; but if you wish them to attend Children’s Church, they may leave with the other children during this time. Children may be picked up in the Education Building after the services. Rehoboth UMC maintains current Safe Sanctuaries policies that can be obtained through the church office.
