Celebrate Easter with St. Bart's Kids at 11 am!
Gather with us this Sunday at the 11 am service for a joyful Easter celebration for all ages.
Children are invited to take part in Kids' Church, featuring our beloved Easter Egg Hunt in the garden and the Flowering of the Cross— a beautiful tradition of decorating the cross with fresh blooms. Baskets will be provided, or you may bring your own. Contents of all eggs are nut-free. You are invited (not required) to wear a fun and festive hat and to bring flowers to add to the cross. We'll also have plenty of flowers and hats available at church.
While not mandatory, your RSVP will help plan and prepare for everything to run as smoothly as possible. All are truly welcome as we gather to celebrate Christ's resurrection with joy, hope, and community.
We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
A Place for Kids
ACCEPTANCE + Wonder + Community
Ages Birth through 5th Grade
Here at St. Bart's, we want children to know from day one that they are known and loved, that they matter. We also believe that children have a natural sense of spirituality and that faith is caught more than taught. We engage our kids in the stories, teachings, and love of Jesus to help grow the faith that is already within them. Children and families of all faith backgrounds or none are welcome in our inclusive community!
Please Register!
Registering your child ensures our records are up to date regarding allergies, special needs, and emergency contact information. Please help us ensure the safety of our community. Thank you!

Choristers
St. Bartholomew’s Chorister program was founded in 1995 by reaching out to children and families throughout the five boroughs of New York City. The program consists of thorough musical education, sustained by rehearsals throughout the week, singing at the 11am service, concerts, trips, and an annual late summer choir camp. Participation in the choristers typically begins at age 8 and up. To find out if the Chorister program might help develop and support the musical interests of a young person you know, please contact Associate Organist and Choirmaster Alexander Pattavina.
Kids' Club

Kids' Club is our children's program for grades K - 5. Our gatherings are designed to bring the stories of the Bible to life in ways that are meaningful, healthy, and fun using seasonal magazines, playbooks, and vibrant visuals designed to open kids' imaginations to the wonder of God' love.

The 11 am service includes a 25-30 minute Kids' Church program during the sermon and prayers.

During the announcements, all kids to the church to receive communion with their families.
