Catechesis of the Good Shepherd

“God’s Little Lambs” – Sunday Infant – Toddler Nursery
8:15 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
With the help of a caring staff and parent volunteers, the Sunday Nursery is committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment for children from infancy through second grade. As they begin their life together with God, our youngest members’ first church environment is designed with age-appropriate toys and, for older children, music and other activities that introduce beginning biblical and religious images and vocabulary.
