Children’s Sessions

Rowan University, July 26-30, 2007

           Residential Yearly Meeting is like Quaker family camp! Children and grown-ups worship, learn and play, participate in their business meetings, share meals and care for one another. Old friendships are deepened and new ones are made.

           All of the children’s activities will be led by gifted, enthusiastic adults that will follow your child’s age-defined group throughout the Sessions. Programs will be based upon this year’s theme “Dwelling in God: Living Our Faith Out Loud.” Since our children like living “out loud,” we are certain that when your children attend RYM sessions, they will learn about God, their Quaker faith, grow spiritually, and have fun at the same time!

           Children will be in their age-based groups in the mornings and evenings with leaders who have planned activities for fun and spiritual growth. Volunteers and staff will lead each group - infants & toddlers, 3 & 4 year-olds, rising Kindergarten & 1st, 2nd & 3rd, 4th & 5th grades. Nothing can grow community like time and adventures together. Please plan to come and encourage the other families in your Meeting to participate!

Register here!

We hope you will join us!

Note: In addition to the general registration form, we need a completed Children’s Sessions Registration Form for each child. This form lets us know about your child’s unique needs as well as emergency information and what days your child will be in Children’s Sessions.

The Children's Sessions form can be found here.
