| Frequently Asked Questions |
- What time should I arrive on Sundays?
You will want to arrive fairly early on your first Sunday at MDUMC for a couple of reasons. First, we are a fairly large church and there's a lot to see! Second, the earlier you come, the more options you have for parking! We'd advise arriving in the parking lot between 9:10 and 9:15 a.m. That will give you plenty of time to get into the building, register and make it to class. Parents are asked not to drop off their children in Sunday School prior to 9:20 a.m.

- What about the computer check-in system?
Your family information is entered into our system such that when you come on Sunday mornings, all you need to do is to key in your phone number. The computer will make a nametag for each of your children. You will retain a portion of the nametag with a claim number printed on it. That number matches the number on your child's nametag and adds a level of security to our check-out system.

- Where do I need to come on Sunday morning?
On your first Sunday at MDUMC, please bring your children and come to the Office of Children's Ministries. Our staff and volunteers will be there to greet you, help you register for Sunday School, answer your questions, and escort you to one of our classrooms.

- What will my child do on Sunday mornings?
All of our classes feature interactive Bible lessons designed to share the love of God with children of all ages in a fun and stimulating learning environment. Classes for two year olds and older are taught by trained adult volunteers using a variety of curricula that includes Bible stories, crafts, games and music. While younger children generally spend the entire Sunday School hour in their classroom, children in older classes (K and up) sometimes go to "special events" such as Sing & Shout.

- When is the church nursery open?
The church nursery is open throughout Sunday mornings, 8 a.m. - the last child is picked up around 12:10. The nursery is open at other times by request of a program staff member. If you need to have a nursery provided so that you can attend a meeting or program, please let the staff person in charge of that program know ahead of time.
There are two church nurseries. One is on our main campus in B111 and the second is located in The Well. The nursery in the Well is open 9 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. You can leave your child at either locations.

- Are children welcome in worship?
Absolutely! Children's sermons are offered at both the 11:00 Sanctuary service and at the 11:01 Journey Service at The Well. Children's activity notebooks are available at the children's kiosk in the sanctuary narthex.
