Nursery & Sunday School

Due to Covid 19, we are not having a nursery or Sunday School. Families are encouraged to worship together at our outdoor services in April and May of 2021. We are looking forward to a time when we are able to open our facilities up to the children and adults!

Safe Sanctuary Guidelines for the Nursery and Sunday School

Mt. Zion follows theSafe Sanctuary Guidelinesrecommended by the United Methodist Church.

ALL nursery volunteers and Sunday School teachers have passed background checks pursuant to our Safe Sanctuary Guidelines.

Nursery

The nursery at Mount Zion is for infants and toddlers up to the age of 5. It starts at 9:45 a.m. and ends when the worship service is finished.

There are two adults supervising the nursery at all times.
All volunteers and staff have passed background checks.
The nursery is provided during both Sunday School (9:45 a.m.) and the Worship Service (11:00 a.m.)

The nursery is located on the lower level of the church building. You may use the stairs on the right hand side of the sanctuary. Follow the stairs down and the nursery will be immediately on your right. You may enter the lower level through the back door which leads into the kitchen. Turn left and it will be the second door on the left hand side of the hallway near the staircase. On Sunday mornings, after the Children’s Moment during the worship service, the nursery-age children will be escorted to the nursery by the two nursery workers or they may remain in the worship service with their parents.

The children at Mount Zion are a very important part of our church. They represent the future and we have recently completed a renovation of our nursery to reflect this new emphasis.

Small infants that may need to sleep or rest quietly have a separate area where they won’t be disturbed by the older toddlers.

Play centers and many hands-on activities with manipulatives are available to enhance motor skills, sharing, and caring during supervised play.
