Here at Sevierville First United Methodist Church we value our children and encourage them on their faith walk from birth to 6th grade. Our church is a community of faith that can offer a safe haven and sanctuary where children can seek advice, help, and hope. We have a Safe Sanctuary Policy that we adhere to in order to maintain the well-being of your children.
We offer a nursery from 8:15 through the end of our 10:45 Sunday services. At 9:30 there are several Sunday school classes such as, preschool, K-2, 3rd/4th, and 5th. During our 10:45 traditional service, there is a Children's Time where the all the children join the pastor at the altar and enjoy a short message and a prayer. Immediately following, the children ages 5 - 2nd grade are led to Children's Worship where the praise and worship continue.
On Wednesdays, we share the spotlight with our Music Ministry. There is dinner, class time and choir time. Nursery is also provided after the dinner. Several special events are held throughout the year including, but not limited to: Easter celebration, Vacation Bible School, Back to School promotion, Trunk or Treat, and Christmas festivities.
We would love to have you visit and participate in any or all of our events, as membership is not required to attend. Please feel free to contact our Children's Ministry Director at children@1stmethodist.com for any questions or information.
