Vacation Bible School/Day Camp
- Emmaus has teamed up with United Lutheran to offer VBS for kids age 3-Kindergarten. We take turns on location. This is usually held at the beginning of August.
- Children in grades K-5 are welcome to participate in Day Camp held at Central Lutheran Church and led by Camp Lutherwood staff. Youth older than 5th grade are welcome to become junior or senior counselors.
During worship we encourage all children to be a part of our worship services. We offer a child friendly space in the sanctuary where kids can play quietly, color, or work on crafts.
All of our teachers and adult helpers in the classrooms undergo background checks and two adults are always present in every room.
