Following the guidance of the Maryland Department of Health and Maryland State Department of Education, staff will continue to wear masks during Children’s Ministry. Children over the age of 2 that can successfully wear a mask are strongly recommended to do so for activities in the building. As weather allows for activities to be outdoors and children can be distanced 6 feet, masks breaks will be allowed.
If your child would like to participate using Zoom, please email rachelann.rp@gmail.com to receive an invitation for each Sunday’s activities.

Waverley School Supplies Ministry: It is that time of year again! Children will be going back to school in about six weeks. Through our partnership with Waverley Elementary School we have spent the last 8 years supplying every child at the school with all of their school supplies and sponsoring kids on field trips. We also contributed to the new electronic sign the school installed. This sign helps keep parents and the community up to date on all of the events at the school. Our partnership is a part of our mission to be unmistakable and irreplaceable in our community. The teachers and administration look forward to this fundraiser and are extremely thankful for our generosity to the Waverley community.
The happy rulers are back on the walls in the Worship Center. Take a ruler as a reminder to pray for the Waverley School community and donate $25. Make sure you label your donation with Waverley fund so that the money can go to the school.
In years past we have collected between $3000 and $5000 for the school. Please consider giving to this important mission. Thank you!
