Events and ProgramsWednesday evenings
Children’s Choirs meet prior to the Fellowship Feast which is followed by Table Talk for adults and Small Talk for children. Click here to learn more about our Chlidren's Music programs and to register: http://www.fumc-cary.org/childrensmusic.
Small Talk: During the traditional school year calendar, we continue to emphasize our core values and find inspiring ways to introduce young children to Jesus with the Nursery through 5th graders at Small Talk. We meet at 6:30 in designated children’s rooms while the adults attend the corresponding Table Talk program. Wednesday evenings of Table Talk and Small Talk are exciting because there is specially designed curriculum which delivers the corresponding Small Talk lesson - the same as their parents are hearing at Table Talk! at the child’s developmental level. This is accomplished through large group praise music, teaching Biblical truths and interactive games, crafts and take homes for parents that help the children apply the lessons to their daily lives. Now families can sit around the dinner table and discuss the scripture lesson of the week – powerful stuff!

GPS offerings: Journey to Discipleship - leading families to connect with God, People and Service at each stage of a child’s life
Nurturing a family’s faith is more than a Sunday morning and Wednesday night activity. It’s a 24 hour a day – 365 day per year commitment, and we want to be your partner and resource throughout your child’s life in developing your family’s core values and fostering your child’s growth in God. The following workshops are held regularly throughout the year. Each workshop includes a follow up presentation in the parent’s service of choice, to focus the family on the importance of their commitment and to engage the congregation in actively praying for and supporting these families.
