What happens on a typical sunday morning?
Each week, our Sunday morning begins at 10 a.m. with our Celebration service held in the Sanctuary. It features a variety of music and worship along with traditional Methodist elements. You will find the congregation to be welcoming to guests of all ages. Communion is offered on the first Sunday of each month.
What Childcare do you Offer? Who cares for my child?
Childcare for infant, toddler, and preschool aged children is provided during service and at most church events by trained and screened volunteers.
While the nursery is available for our youngest members, parents with school-aged students are encouraged to bring their youngsters to the worship services. Many children and youth take part in the services. A children’s message, which often mirrors the pastor’s sermon in a child-friendly way, is included each Sunday.
We want you to know that we value your children. It is our desire to provide them with a safe and secure place, where they can learn about God’s love without fear. In that effort, our church has adopted a Safe Sanctuary policy, which outlines the expectations we have for how all of our volunteers interact with children and youth.
First Church Siloam Springs operates using a two-person model, where no volunteer or staff member is alone with a child or youth, under the age of 18, at anytime. Additionally, all volunteers within our children and youth ministry program have gone through a background check and screening process.
Our church family has an added resource, Karl Mounger, who is a member of the national Safe Sanctuaries task force. Karl continually provides educational opportunities for our staff members in order to ensure your child’s safety.
