Are you looking for a church that accepts you and your family just as you are, embraces the things that make you unique, and helps you get to know Jesus? How would you like to experience a worship service where your kids are free to wiggle, dance, skip, color, sing, clap their hands, or sprawl on the floor when they need a little break and you feel refreshed and uplifted? Because I’m a mom first,
and a pastor second. And I’ve got a gaggle of really awesome kids that keep my heart – and my weekly schedule – amazingly full. I love spending time at church because it helps me get connected to God and to friends, and it helps me feel refreshed and uplifted so I can face another busy week. But what I really want is to worship in a setting where my kids are just as welcome to participate in the worship service, where they can relax and be a kid and get to know God and make a few friends, too. I’m looking for that church that embraces the things that make us unique, isn’t afraid to accept us just as we are, and helps us get to know Jesus. Does that sound like the kind of church that would meet your needs? Because I’m really excited to have the opportunity to bring that kind of church to CICS in the Lehigh Valley. We are in the planning stages of a brand new church, and I am really excited to help others worship where they are accepted, valued, and loved.
