SUMMARY:Parenting in the Pew Sunday School Session
DESCRIPTION:Promotion Sunday on Aug. 16 marks an exciting milestone for Wilshire’s kindergarten families as children begin attending worship with their parents for the first time. \nTo help make that transition a positive one, Minister to Children Julie Girards will host Parenting in the Pew, a special Sunday School conversation for parents on Aug. 16. While designed with kindergarten families in mind, the session is open to anyone who wants to think more intentionally about worshiping with children. The session will be held in the Preschool Multipurpose Room (1350) at 9:45 a.m.\nThe discussion will explore realistic expectations for having children in worship, practical ways to help kids engage in the service and ideas for making worship more meaningful for the whole family. An experienced parent panel will share what they’ve learned, offer encouragement and answer questions.\nParent partners sought \nJulie is also looking for experienced parents, grandparents and others who would be willing to partner with a new kindergarten family during worship over the weeks and months ahead. Simply sitting together can provide a welcoming face, encouragement and support as families settle into this new rhythm of worship. This ministry is about more than easing a transition. It is an opportunity to build meaningful intergenerational relationships. Research consistently shows that children who develop connections with caring adults beyond their own parents at church are more likely to develop a lasting, mature faith. \nIf you’re interested in partnering with a family, contact Julie at jgirards@wilshirebc.org ( mailto:jgirards%40wilshirebc.org?subject= ).\n
