Forcey Kids Update – Fall 2021
August 7, 2021 | Kelly Herndon
Fall 2021 Update & Details
MISSION: Partner with parents to nurture their child’s faith in Jesus Christ
Our goal at Forcey Kids this summer is to serve as many families as possible.
Where We Are |
After not meeting together in person since March 2020, Forcey Kids restarted Sunday School for kids ages birth through 4-years-old. Forcey Day Camp met in-person for the summer after not meeting in 2020. (All weeks are full.) Quiet bags were still available for those families who attended services in-person.
The Forcey Kids ministry team has been keeping up with current practices as well as balancing all Forcey ministry needs and regulations as we share our building.
What’s Next |
Based on recommendations from the CDC and AAP, Montgomery County Health Order, Philippians 2:1-11, and 1 Corinthians 10:23-32, Forcey Kids Sunday School will operate as follows for August 2021:
- Sunday School for birth through age 4 will continue to be available during the 11:00 service.
- Kids Church will resume August 8th for those entering Kindergarten through 5th grade graduates during the 11:00 service. Kids will stay in the service with their parents until dismissed to the gym before the sermon begins. Check-Ins will occur at the door to the sanctuary before the service begins.
- Masks should NOT be worn by children under the age of 2.
- Masks MUST be worn by children 2-12, as well as ALL adults indoors. When the Montgomery County Health Order expires, we will revert to our former policy of masks being required by children 2-12, as well as Forcey Kids Ministry Workers and any parents inside the nursery area or near Sunday School classrooms for drop-off and pick-up. (Please let Ms. Kelly know if you or your child will need accommodations with mask-wearing due to medical condition or disability.)
Where We’re Going |
September 5th will be PROMOTION SUNDAY! Children will move to their new Sunday School class based on their grade for the 2021-2022 school year. We will continue to offer Sunday School during the 11:00 service for all ages up through 5th grade. We want to offer Sunday School for birth through age 4 for the 9:00 service, but that is dependent on getting enough Sunday School Ministry Workers. Children in K-5th will continue to sit in the service with their parents during the 9:00 service. These plans will continue to be updated as we monitor guidelines and data.
Forcey Christian School, MDO, MOPS, and CSB will be in-person for the 2021-2022 school year. Registration is already open so secure your spot today!
