Hope Lutheran Church of The Sierra

Information may not be reliable

This is the church of the warm heart,
that heals hurt lives,

that challenges youth,
that knows no distinction of class or station,
the church of the people,
high as the ideals of Jesus,
low as that of the humblest human.

Sunday Morning Program for Children
Junior Church is held every Sunday morning with classes for pre-K through 2nd grade and 3rd through 5th grade. Children attend the 10:30 Worship Service with their parents, but are excused to attend their classes after Children's Time but before scripture readings. They return to the Worship Service in time for Communion. Child Care for children through the age of 3 is also offered.

Junior Church is looking for volunteers to teach Sunday Church classes. Please contact Natalie Johnson if you are interested.
