Chapel

Being an Episcopal Nursery School, we incorporate into our class curriculum Christian values regarding family and friend relationships, sharing, and expressing one’s feelings. Songs are sung and stories are told.

All children attend Chapel Services each month. These services are led by the Director of Youth Ministries, The Reverend C. Susanne Wright-Nava of St. Edmund’s Episcopal Church, and include songs, prayers and most likely, a story or two. Chapel dates are published in the monthly newsletter.  They are the first Monday and Tuesday of each month at 9:10. All parents are welcome!  The children especially like it when it is their birthday, during Chapel they receive a special “Birthday Blessing.”
