Family Ministry at Gloria Dei seeks to nurture a vital and growing faith through personal relationships. This is accomplished by providing:

• Opportunities to strengthen family life
• Opportunities to equip homes as centers of faith formation
• Intergenerational events to celebrate and enrich our lives together

Worship

Worship is a family affair at Gloria Dei. Children of all ages are welcome at every worship service. Children’s bulletins and activity bags are provided.

Nursery

Gloria Dei’s nursery is located in the hallway to the west of the sanctuary. A quiet room is available for parents and infants. The nursery consists of two adjoining rooms (one for “crawlers”, the other for the “hoppers”) supplied with lots of age-appropriate toys and activities. There is a restroom in the nursery and a family restroom is located in the nursery hallway. The nursery is staffed during Sunday worship and on Wednesday evenings. Childcare during other weeknight events/classes is available upon request.

Youth & Family Resource and Gift Center

This book and gift center offers resources to help parents, grandparents, godparents, and other caregivers nurture the faith of their children, youth, and families at home. You may purchase or order age-appropriate books, Bibles, audio and video products, and games to enjoy with your children as you strengthen your family’s devotional life. The Resource Center is provided through the Youth & Family Institute. Check with Dayleen Swanson, administrative assistant, or Pastor Heidi.
