Events and Activities For Families
Join your CHC family for a hour of crafting, and learning as each of our families assembles a set of resurrection eggs.
Resurrection Eggs are a great tool that your family can use to tell, and retell the Easter story.
In the days leading up to the event you will receive your own crafting kit with all of the materials you need to build a set of resurrection eggs. Then on Friday, March 26th we invite you to join us on Zoom as we assemble our kits using clay, string, stickers and other craft materials.

Prayer Partners for All Ages
During Lent we encourage everyone to find a Prayer Partner – and that means kids too! A prayer partner is someone your child can connect with and pray for each week. It may be as simple as sharing prayer requests and going through a reading plan and then sharing thoughts or insights over Zoom, Facebook, the phone, or even through weekly letters.If you are having trouble finding a prayer partner for yourself or your child please contact the church office. There are lots of great devotionals on the Bible App (or you can follow our Lent devotional – outlined above).
Once you’ve connected your child with a prayer partner you can keep things simple by having them fill out THIS CARD each week.
A BIG Thank you to the Kennedy Family who helped lead our lesson on prayer from a few weeks ago. If your kids ever struggle with the question “what should I pray for?” The 5-Finger-Prayer method could be something new to try! Check out how it works in the video above.
We are so thankful for how many families sand kids participated in the Fall Blessing project by decorating pumpkin cards and donating candy. We’ve decided to completed a similar project for the seniors at Lanark this spring. Through the month of March we’re asking families to print our and decorate the attached Butterfly card and return it to the church (either in the outside mailbox, or during a Sunday morning service). The butterflies will be added to a small potted plant and delivered to the residents at Lanark Home this Easter.
