Sunday Mornings for Children

Children of all ages are welcome in our worship services.

Activity bags are available at the doors to the sanctuary. Children's Time is part of each service and invites children down front for a special message from our Director of Children's Ministry.

Nursery and Sunday school are offered during each worship hour.

Teachers Needed!

Sunday school teachers are the most important partners in ministry for helping to raise our children in the church. It takes 35 volunteers to be fully staffed each week. Please consider signing up for one or two weeks each month, or for a full month each semester, or for more! You will make a difference in the life and faith of our children.

SIGN UP ONLINE or contact Rohini Drake (, 972.996.0129) for more details or to volunteer.

Sunday Morning Special Needs Ministry

At FUMCR we want to share God's love with everyone, reaching each child in a way they can learn best.  All children are welcome here. If your child has a special need, please contact Director of Children's Ministries, Cheryl Bishop at 972.996.0121. We would like to accommodate your child in the best way possible.

  •  Our Sunday School Buddy Program offers a volunteer assigned to help your child while in Sunday school or in a separate classroom.
  •  A specific special needs Sunday school classroom for children who need a different environment than traditional Sunday school is available. Please contact Cheryl Bishop, 972.996.0121, in advance in order to ensure that a teacher will be present.
