Children in Worship

Children are a vital part of our church family and are invited to participate in our worship services each Sunday. Traditional services at 8:30 and 10:30 in the Worship Center include a children's Pray Ground. The Vine modern worship service at 10:30 in the Christian Life Center includes Vine Kids, an opportunity for children to hear the Word as a group before returning to worship.

Preschool Power Hour is for children ages 3 & 4 and takes place in room 409 in our Christian Life Center. Elementary kids will meet in rooms 402 (conference room) and 430 (Orange Peel) of the Christian Life Center from 6-7pm for music and a lesson.

Nursery

We believe children are a precious gift from God. We will provide trained loving and caring nursery workers who are attentive to your child’s needs and sensitive to your wishes and concerns. The nursery is available for children from birth to two years of age.
We ask that all items, i.e. diaper bags, cups, pacifiers, be marked with your child’s name. Please sign your child in with time, guardian’s location and cell phone number along with any special instructions at the door. Only authorized persons will be able to sign your child out.

New Babies

Our New Babies ministry exists to support families who are a part of our congregation upon the birth of a newborn. Families of new babies are given a handmade blanket. Meals will also be provided if the family wishes to receive them. To become involved in the New Baby ministry, please contact us at cumc@clemsonumc.org.

Acolytes & Crucifers

Acolytes and crucifers play a special role in worship on Sunday mornings at the 8:30am and 10:30am services. Please contact cumc@clemsonumc.org for more information and to sign up for training.
