KIDS Club (ages 3 - grade 6) offer KIDS an opportunity for hands-on Bible learning time and is offered during the 10 am worship. Normally, KIDS start out in worship with their family and then gather for a Children's Message when they will be invited to go to KIDS Club. There are also worship tools available for KIDS to help them stay engaged as they join in the worship service. If you have questions about KIDS Club or worship tools, please contact Mallory Hopper, mallory@herndonumc.org.

Monthly, usually on the second Sunday of the month, there is a lunch gathering around Herndon called Discover Herndon. Look for specifics in the News and worship announcements. This is an opportunity to explore what membership at Herndon UMC might be like. It is not a commitment to join, just an opportunity to have lunch with a Pastor to learn more and discover more about Herndon.
Following attending Discover Herndon, you will be invited to join the Newcomers Life Group for a few weeks (about a month). This is another opportunity to learn more about Herndon UMC and to get to know more people.
Of course, at any time you are invited to contact the staff, welcome@herndonumc.org, and to join other groups and teams in serving and sharing God's love! Our community is richer for having you as a part of it!
