This is a high-energy program where the church is completely transformed into the theme\u2019s scenery (space, underwater, arctic, in the clouds\u2026). Youth travel to different stations around the church to participate in crafts, food, story and games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are passionate about engaging with the youth in our care. In all our programs, we share bible stories and discuss how they can apply to everyday life. We like encourage a child\u2019s natural curiosity and creativity while letting them know they are part of God\u2019s family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I encourage you to come check us out one Sunday to see what we are all about!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marilyn Flanigan, Lighthouse Coordinator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phone: 519-609-6132&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Email: <a href=\"mailto:lighthouse@tzuc.ca\">lighthouse@tzuc.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-7857000f-9a66-4c32-9a54-ee9e877407bc\" href=\"https:\/\/tzuc.ca\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/LIGHTHOUSE-REGISTRATION.docx\">LIGHTHOUSE-REGISTRATION<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/tzuc.ca\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/LIGHTHOUSE-REGISTRATION.docx\" class=\"wp-block-file__button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-7857000f-9a66-4c32-9a54-ee9e877407bc\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shining Jesus\u2019 Light, Sharing Christ\u2019s Love, Showing God\u2019s Grace Are you curious about Children\u2019s Ministry at Thorndale United Church?
