Children & Families
About those colorful masks...
Masks are not required for kids, but encouraged for children or anyone unvaccinated for COVID-19. Also, some additional safety precautions are still followed in our Nursery and for non-vaccinated children between 5 and 12 years of age. Have questions? Please email Josh Corsaro at jcorsaro@sjtulsa.org.
Choristers
Choristers (our children’s choir) will resume in September, meeting Wednesday nights at 5:30 p.m. (start date TBA). Your young family member is invited to join! These singers will have the opportunity to participate in several performances throughout the fall. This fun music program is designed for children in first grade and older. To sign up, email jarndt@sjtulsa.org or jcorsaro@sjtulsa.org. The Choristers’ first performance will be with our Parish Choir during a service in mid-fall. You won’t want to miss it!

The church is planning many other fun days for kids and their families. Check out our Event & Activities link in the top menu bar of the website for more opportunities. A super fun and spiritually meaningful event for children and their parents was the production of our annual Christmas Eve "tableau." In the photo below you will see our Your Director, Josh Corsaro, talking with a few of our many little parishioners about their speaking parts in this program.
Nursery
Our nursery opens at 9:00 a.m. and accommodates children between the ages of infant to four years. Our goal is to allow children to not only have a safe environment to play in, but to also help them grow in understanding of God's love. Have questions? Email Josh Corsaro at jcorsaro@sjtulsa.org.
Children's Chapel
This program is for children pre-K through sixth grade and focuses on building a foundation for children to engage with the flow of liturgy. To accomplish this, we use the Storymakers NYC curriculum. Storymakers NYC allows children to engage with Bible stories through doing arts and crafts and ultimately seeing how they fit within God’s story. Children's Chapel meeting during the 10 a.m. worship service. Children join/follow the acolyte during the sequence hymn near the beginning of worship and return to the Nave and their family during the announcement time. Have questions? Email Josh Corsaro at jcorsaro@sjtulsa.org.
Lots More Fun...
The church is planning many other fun days for kids and their families. Check out our Event & Activities link in the top menu bar of the website for more opportunities. A super fun and spiritually meaningful event for children and their parents was our annual VBS. In the picture above you can see some of our children posing for a funny picture before returning to their crafts, games, and Bible lessons.
