Children's Ministries
"Let the children come to me, and do not stop them: for it is to such as these that the Kingdom of heaven belongs."
Matthew 19:14 (NRSV)

At College Hill UMC we strive to provide an environment where children can experience the love of God, be nurtured in a faith of compassion and know they are a valued child of God. If you have questions or would like to volunteer your time in the children's department, please contact Ivey Allen, Children's Coordinator,  683-4643 x222.

Sunday School
The Mission of the College Hill United Methodist Sunday School is to provide a learning environment where children:

  • Experience the love and Spirit of God

  • Learn stories of our faith
  • Carry with them from Sunday School love, care and compassion for all people.
9:40-10:40 every Sunday children meet for snacks, fellowship and learning.  We are using new curriculum in the children's area this school.  The preschool and kindergarten classes will be using Rock Solid and the 1st-5th Graders will use Live B.I.G.  Both of these new resources will help us to not only learn about God but to live our love God.
