June-August
This summer your child is invited to journey on the path to The Way of Love. Visit the Way of Love page on our website for activities to love others the way Christ loves us.
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
There will also be service projects done throughout the summer as a church and we invite you to participate as a family. Our first 5th Sunday service project is on June 5 at C.C. Mason Elementary School beginning at 9:00 AM.
Activity sheets are available for children that currently attend in-person services. We hope to have more children join us this summer so we can start to get together again and enjoy some fellowship.
If you have questions, please contact Brielle Giard at ceckids@cectx.org.
