Youth and Children's Ministries

Saint Anne’s Church celebrates young people in our midst.  We believe that children and teens are an essential part of the Christian community, and we look for ways to include them fully in every aspect of the church’s life.  When a child is baptized, we promise to “do all in our power to support this person in his/her life in Christ” – and we seek to do that by ministering TO the child, WITH the child, and advocating FOR the child (as outlined in the Children’s Charter for the Church).

At St. Anne’s, there are many ways for kids to Learn, Participate in Worship, Participate in Outreach, and Have Fun.  See children's and youth education and ministries for more information on these areas.
