We invite you to learn about the variety of ways your family can be involved and spiritually nurtured at Shepherd of
the Sierra Lutheran Church. We celebrate families of all types and know that God speaks to us in and through our children.
We encourage you to join in one or more of our present activities. We also hope you will suggest new ideas that are of interest
to you. We meet regularly to advise and coordinate the activities with families and children. We welcome you!
Worship
Children are welcome at worship. We believe children are essential to our worshiping community and we support and encourage
children’s participation in receiving God's gifts from the earliest ages. Please know that a Parents Room is there for
those who wish, but it is not an expectation for your children during worship.
Pew Bags
Keeping children occupied during worship can be a challenge. This service offers an answer! The pew bag team sews fabric activity
bags and fills them with age-appropriate activities to keep children engaged during worship. Ask an usher if you can't find
them to the right of the sanctuary doors.
Sunday School
Join us for this Sunday morning which shares Bible and faith stories with children from Shepherd of the Sierra’s congregation
and community. Classes focus on Bible-story curriculum, high-spirited music, inspiring worship and awesome special projects.
Our Sunday School kids also learn about stewardship and missions by helping to support
Friends of Mercy.
Vacation Bible School
