“Let the little children come to me … for
the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
When the disciples asked Jesus, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” Jesus called a little child and had him stand among them. And He said, “I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name, welcomes me.” Matthew 18:1-5
At RCC, we welcome children and teach them about the love of Christ. They are valued members of our church family, each with a unique voice, personality and God given talents. Our mission, in concert with their parents, our Pastor and our Deacons, is to nurture and guide them and help them to understand God’s truths.
Rye Congregational Church is blessed with a very vibrant and dedicated Christian Education Committee that works tirelessly to make sure the children are learning and, most importantly, enjoying their lessons and activities which are many. Some of the additional activities the children enjoy are singing with Sparrow Spirit and performing solos during worship service, playing bells, participating in our annual Christmas Pageant, occasional family movie nights with popcorn, ice skating, and visiting with Pastor Jon.
