Oakton Church of the Brethren is blessed with an active children's ministry. With over 50 children from nursery to senior high, we have programs for all ages ranging from nursery care for Sunday School and Worship times, to Senior High Youth fellowship and mission events. Some of our on going programs include:
- Sunday School for children ages 2 to 99. Nursery for infants and toddlers.
- Children's Church for children ages 4-first grade during worship.
- Children's story in worship for children of all ages.
- Two children's choirs: Cherub Choir for ages 4-first grade, and Children's Choir for second through eighth grades.
- The 100% Club: A program designed to celebrate giving God 100% of one's heart, soul, mind and strength for children grades 2-8.
- WAT's: "Worship Activity Totes" available during worship for children grades 2-6 to help them find meaningful quiet activities to work on in worship that are also tied to the Sunday's themes.
- Oakton's Junior Crossroads, a children's newsletter is published every other month with news of our children's ministry activities as well as writings and illustrations from the children in the congregation.
Our children's ministry is primarily overseen by the Christian Education Committee, our Children's Ministry Coordinator, Debbie Seidel, and Pastor Chris Bowman.
