Information and Times for LOGOS 

LOGOS is a four-part program of Christian nurture including Bible Study, Worship Skills, Recreation/Activities and Dinners for Children and Youth in Grades 1-8.
​

The program for elementary aged children is called GECKOS (*God's Enthusiastic Caring Kids of Spirit), and it is designed to be the start of their Logos experience.  GECKOS children enter through the parking lot doors and we have a greeter on hand from 4:15 pm - 4:30 pm. This year we will have temperature checks and will give parents a "thumbs up" through the glass doors when they can drive off!  Children should go directly to Westminster Hall for cartoons. The program begins at 4:30 and runs until 7:00 pm.  Children who arrive after 4:30 pm will need a parent escort into the building to find their first rotation.  Parent pick up is at 7pm in the Social Hall. Parents should be wearing masks as the children are.

Middle School youth are in the LOGOS group called "Chrysalis." Middle School youth can arrive at 4:30 pm for Cocoon Time in the back of the sanctuary (doing homework and chatting), and then they will have group singing in the Tower Room from 5:15 pm-5:35 pm, and then they will start their official program time at 5:35 pm with Worship Skills in the Choir Room. Chrysalis ends at 8:00 pm.  See the "Chrysalis" page for details about their program.
Our Program
We study God's word every week, but that's not all! In addition to studying God's word, we practice living out God's word on each other. We practice treating everyone as a child of God as we have a meal together, as we play games or make neat stuff together, and as we work together to lead worship as a choir. We're all children of God, young and old, and we treat each other that way.

Forms are online, and in the church office.   Questions may be directed to the LOGOS Director, Keri Rounsville (814-574-5156).
