Bringing children to meeting for worshipPeople and children of all ages are welcome at King's Lynn Meeting.
Parents often worry that children will create a disturbance but it is surprising how well they adapt and find uses of their own for a period of silence. Meeting for Worship normally lasts for around an hour. When children come to Meeting, we aim to provide activities for them for 45 minutes, separately from the Meeting and for them to join our worship for the final 15 minutes or so. If you are thinking about bringing children to Lynn meeting then it is helpful for us to know so that we can plan activities appropriately. Please phone Lucy on 01553 671620. |
"At meeting for worship relax and let your baby be with you; my small daughter called it 'the best cuddle of the week' when I couldn't rush off and do something busy. It's not easy for the parents to believe that their child's gurglings actually help the meeting rather than interrupt it. Nonetheless, that is true, and you shouldn't give way to the temptation to take a happily babbling child out of meeting (though howling is something different!)." |
