Elementary Sunday School @ Chatham UMC
It is our hope that elementary aged kids will join the gathered community for worship at Chatham UMC at 9:00 am. We love having kids in worship and want to make sure that kids know that this is a church where they belong.
There are activities for children to the right of the main entrance to the sanctuary. If your kids draw pictures and leave them on the clip boards after worship – we include them in our mailings to our homebound members.
