Lenten Programs for Children on Wednesday Nights (back to top)

Wednesday night programs for children continue through Lent with two exciting projects. Beginning at 6:00 PM all children are welcome to join us in M211 for a special craft and a movie. At 6:45 PM our programs begin. Kindergarten through 2nd graders will stay in M211 and spend the Wednesday nights of Lent putting together a special Lenten tree created from symbols of stories told during Lent and Easter. Our 3rd through 5th grade group will meet in U305, spending the season of Lent looking at The Gospel According to Dr. Seuss, by James W. Kemp. We will read a different Dr. Seuss book each week and discuss how it relates to our Christian faith and the lessons Jesus taught. Please join us! If you have questions, please contact Anne Cullen at cullena@christchurchcharlotte.org or Lindsay Full at fullL@christchurchcharlotte.org.
