Wednesday nights are buzzing with activity here at Berean.  Our Wednesday Clubs are for children age 4 through grade 6, from September through May.  Children can join at any time, and boys and girls in grades 3-6 can choose between two different types of clubs.  All of our Wednesday Clubs focus on Scripture and relationship-building in a relaxed and fun-filled setting. Children's Choirs start at 5:50pm.  Clubs start at 6:45 pm and conclude at 8:15 pm.
