Parents of young children and busy teenagers often wonder how on earth they could ever find the time to "fit in" coming to church on Sunday mornings! Here are some thoughts from parents:
"He gets some time on his own, and I get an hour to myself with other adults. Plus, there's always coffee afterwards."
- "We realized the kids were so busy with sports that they had no time for quiet reflection. Time in church offers that - and we can do it together as a family. Sunday mornings have become a 're-set' for the week ahead."
- "I wanted my son to know the songs and Bible stories that I grew up with. Last week I heard him humming "Jesus Loves Me" to himself!"
"He gets some time on his own, and I get an hour to myself with other adults. Plus, there's always coffee afterwards."
