Childcare on Sunday Mornings
The Epiphany nursery provides care for children 6 months to school age, from 7:45 am to 12:15 pm. Parents or guardians can drop their little ones off before or during the worship service (the nursery is located just downstairs from the sanctuary) and attend the worship service, knowing that their child is in good hands. There are age-appropriate toys and books for the children to play and engage with, and two caregivers at all times. We are offering a liturgically themed lesson in the nursery for the beginning of the 8:45 service, taught by Camille Hayward. If you need help finding the nursery please ask a staff member or usher and they will lead you to the right place.
Children are also welcome to join their parents or guardians in the morning worship services. Worship activity bags are available to give children different opportunities to engage in the liturgy.
Sunday School
Sunday School is spiritual education for youth, 6th-12th grade. It takes place every Sunday during 10:00 – 10:55 am (except the first Sunday of the month, which is First Sunday brunch). The youth will study a variety of topics throughout the year, growing in deeper love and devotion to God through new understanding and spiritual practices. Any youth-aged student is welcome to join, no need to register!
Casual Parent Connection & First Sunday Brunch
The 10:00 am hour is a great time for parents to connect casually in the Fireside Room while their kids play in the Courtyard or attend the Sunday School class for youth (6th-12th grade).
Epiphany also hosts a First Sunday Brunch from 10:00 – 11:00 am. Families are encouraged to stay together for our First Sunday Brunch, so there is no youth Sunday School on this day.
Come As You Are Eucharist
A later afternoon eucharist service each Sunday at 4:00 pm in the Chapel. This service is casual and welcoming. While it follows the structure of Anglican liturgy, it’s designed for those who may have a hard time sitting still, whether you’re a toddler or an octogenarian. It’s for people who have never been to church before, and for anyone seeking a place to belong.
The heart of this service is generous inclusion: meeting people where they are and loving them for who they are. It’s built for interaction, whether you’re moving between prayer stations, hearing the Gospel told in story form, engaging in an interactive sermon, or gathering around the altar. This is a service designed to fill your heart with joy and prepare you for the week ahead.
Youth Group
On the first Sunday of the month from 5:00 – 6:30 pm, directly following the Come As You Are Service, the youth students (6th-12th grade) gather for an evening of community and fun activities in the Christie House Library. Parents are encouraged to RSVP for each event on Realm because dinner is provided. During Youth Group, parents are free to join Epiphany’s Choral Evensong service from 5:30 – 6:30 pm, an Anglican tradition of sung evening prayer creates space for reflection, meditation, and spiritual renewal at the close of the day.
Choristers
Our chorister program offers children ages 8 and up the opportunity to participate meaningfully in an intergenerational choir experience. Choristers rehearse weekly and participate monthly in the 8:45 am worship service alongside Epiphany’s choir. The program is structured so children may participate in worship as a chorister as well.
