Childcare Co-op
(crawlers - pre-K)
We welcome children of all ages in church, but we also offer
childcare for those who want it. Our Childcare Coordinator, Kendra
Long, is assisted
by parents who take turns caring for each other’s kids. Childcare is
available on Sunday mornings during the 10:15 Eucharist, and for some special events as well. Contact:
Kendra Long, Childcare Coordinator (kendralong@gmail.com
or 425-269-3999)
Sunday School (pre-K - 5th grade)
Faith formation happens wherever people of faith come together
intentionally in community. Sunday school at St. Thomas includes both
learning in classrooms with teachers and in special Chapel Sundays, when
we tell our sacred stories in the chapel.
No matter what format our learning takes, we always rejoin the entire
congregation in time for the Eucharistic Prayer. You can drop your child off
as early as 10:05 each week. Contact:
