Bethany Land |
Bethany Land is the place where a group of dedicated volunteers assist children between the ages of 1 and 6 during service times:
- Sunday 9:00 AM - 12:00PM: Bethany Land 1 - Sunday 5:00 - 7:15 PM: Bethany Land 1, 2 and 3
Bethany Land 1 takes care of children between the ages of 1 and 3 during the Sunday and Thursday Services. Bethany Land 2 and 3 offers spiritual and moral education to children between the ages of 3 and 6 during the Sunday evening service. - BL 2 & 3 services are temporarily suspended.
Children learn songs, pray, listen to Bible stories, have a snack, have different hands-on activities and last but nor least, they play. The volunteers who supervise them try to make the Bible lessons as pleasant and as age-appropriate as possible. Each child must be dropped off and picked up by one of the parents or by a chaperone.
Schedule for Bethany Land 2 and 3: - Play time - Put toys away - Short prayer - Bible lesson/story - Snack time - water - bathroom break - Romanian story - Short Prayer - color sheet or activity page - Sermon and worship - Children wait to be picked
The two "Mother and Child" rooms at the back of the sanctuary are open for parents with children under the age of 3. The room on the right-hand side of the main entrance is exclusively open for mothers and their children, and the room on the left-hand side is for either parent. Room #13 (across from the library) is also exclusively for the mother and child.
