Family Retreat

Join us for our annual family retreat at Claggett Conference Center. Families with children and youth are welcome! Rev. Scott Planting, our new Adult Formation Director, will lead us in our theme Walking in the Woods. This is a wonderful opportunity to “get away,” have fun and fellowship with Westminster families, and enjoy the outdoors.

M&M Week

Westminster invites children who have completed Grades K-5 to join us for "Music & More Week," our musical day camp! During the week we will learn a Bible story through song, movement, art, and more, then present a short musical -- "Life of the Party: The Story of Mary and Martha" -- to our families and friends on Friday.

Family Supper Club

Come break bread with other families in our church. We’re bringing back our supper club for families with children to build community and foster relationships. Interested families will be assigned to a group with three to four other families and will eat potluck style at each other’s homes (or nearby restaurants or parks) on a quarterly basis over the course of the year. Family Supper Club will have a “with kids,” “adults only,” or “combination” option, and the focus is on keeping it fun, flexible and affordable.

Children sit around tables listening to their teacher during Sunday school.

Whole Family Children's Formation

Sunday Mornings at 10:00 AM on the 3rd Floor (September-May)

During most Sundays of the school year, the whole family is invited to join Ms. Patty for Whole Family Formation! Each week, we share a Bible story, music, and art together.

New Moms' Network

Having a new baby is exciting, tiring, and at times overwhelming. To help support each other and make connections, Westminster is creating a network of current moms with preschool-aged children and younger who can “be there” for new moms during this season of life. We will pair a mom in the “network” with an expectant mom shortly before her baby is born. The network mom will text/call/email the new mom to check in, see how everything is going, and find if the Westminster community may be of any help.
