FOUNDATIONS CHILDCARE MINISTRY
Many within our church have been active in preparing for the opening of Foundations Childcare Ministry this summer. Our trustees have completed renovations to various areas and several classrooms, our board of overseers have written policies and procedures for the ministry, and we are very excited for the opportunity to offer daycare and preschool to families in and around Washington, serving children from 6 weeks through pre-school age. If you have questions about Foundations Childcare Ministry, we encourage you to talk with Lisa Hinderliter, Amy Hamm, Kim Conder, or Tim Stoner. We also encourage you to pray for this ministry and to spread the word throughout our community – especially among friends and family members in need of childcare. Inquiries can also be made through our website; winfmc.org/foundations.
