    Sunday Kids Church: Infant through 6th Grade

    A comfortable Family Room, just off the sanctuary, with the service streamed in. It is offered to grownups with infants and toddlers not yet ready for the Nursery. There is supervised care for toddlers through 4-year-olds in a lovely Nursery, full of toys and attached to a playground.

    Pre-K through 6th graders begin in worship and, after a Children’s Time, go to class to learn the Scriptures and how to live our faith through songs, stories, crafts, and play. On Communion Sundays, Children rejoin their parents in worship.

    As a safe church/sanctuary church, we have adopted a policy to keep kids safe in our spaces and activities.

  • JV Youth: 4th - 6th Grades

    JV is a sweet “junior youth group” community for 4th, 5th, and 6th graders to play games and have fun, share in the ups and downs of life, and learn more about Jesus and what his life means about our own!

    JV meets on the 1st and 3rd Sunday evening of each month at 5:30-7pm. Come for the connections, the silliness, the Spirit, and the love!

    We meet at Bothell UMC, typically gathering in our JV room (#208) which is just to the right inside the main church doors off the parking lot. Our 1st meeting is Sunday, September 17th!

  • 3FD: First Friday Family Dinner

    Local families getting together for dinner. It really is that simple.

    Families with any kid between infant and 3rd grade are invited to come (and bring everyone!)! We meet at a local home, the kids play and the adults hang out.

    Please RSVP here so we have enough pizza!

Upcoming events

Hi, I’m Susanna!

I have loved church school all my life, as a student, teacher, children’s ministry director, and pastor. I love to tell the story and share the surprise and excitement children feel when new light breaks through. I’ve learned God’s love and the call to follow Jesus more through singing than study, and those songs and scripture we learn by heart as children stay with us all through life.

I had a strong sense of God’s care for me from before my memory begins, and I want that for our children. My parents encouraged a deep, questioning, exploring, playful love of the Bible, and I see that here. I’m so impressed with the creativity, joy, and care at Bothell UMC. I’m privileged to be part of it. I have a lot to learn, and a lot to offer.

I look forward to growing in grace and wisdom together, having a lot of fun while learning and living the Word to love God and to care for the earth, for ourselves, and for all our neighbors everywhere.

Together, with faithful volunteers, I hope to help our children grow into a faith that will make a lifelong difference. It takes a congregation.
