Parenting

It sure would be nice if kids came with an instruction book. Since they don’t we offer a number of different parenting classes throughout the year. You’ll not only find some great parenting tips, but find a parenting community to help you see that you are part of a village of parents seeking to strengthen their parenting skills as well! Here’s what we have planned

Classes

 

Family Discipleship

Sunday mornings, Jan 26-Mar 9, 9:00 a.m. – 10:15 a.m.

Have you ever wondered what it means to disciple your children in the Christian faith? Knowing that parenting can be the most stressful, fun, messy, and beautiful thing we can do in life, our aim is to equip you with practical tools for walking with your kids on a journey of faith in your household. This 7-week class is designed to help you establish a sustainable rhythm of time, moments, and milestones as you raise your children and to teach them what it means to live as Christ’s followers. Cost: $20 per couple for book materials. Childcare is available for a small fee with prior registration.

Parenting the Strong-Willed Child

Tuesdays | Sept. 10 – Oct 22 | 6:30 – 8:00 p.m.

This class will help parents gain a greater understanding of their child’s unique temperaments, will help develop more effective parental responses, and strengthen the parent/child relationship as well as implementing Love and Logic principles for managing behaviors.

Cost: $20 per couple. Childcare is available for a small fee with prior registration.
