We offer age-appropriate care and formation for them while seeking to incorporate them into worship for the whole family. Youth Catechism is provided for ages 10 to 18. The Gospels portray Jesus drawing close to children with deep affection. "Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 19:14). In this passage, all the little children brought to Jesus received from him the laying on of hands with prayer (v. 13). Children can know Jesus profoundly! Peter proclaimed on the day of Pentecost that the promise of the Holy Spirit is for the entire family: adults, children, and all who are far away from God (Acts 2:39). We all play a role in their godly formation. While parents have the primary oversight of this task, it takes an extended family to provide a wider pool of nurturing relationships. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/fe1c0c9e-e001-485a-8861-dc1c6bd62ca8/SA-children_play.jpg Visit on Sunday During worship, our children remain through all the Scripture readings and then are blessed and sent to participate in Godly Play, our children's church curriculum. They return to be with their families during the Eucharist (Communion). Godly Play is rooted in story, wonder, liturgy, discovery and joy as children seek and find the mystery of God's presence. It is based upon the recognition that children have an innate sense of the presence of God. All they lack is the appropriate language to help them identify and express it so it can be explored and strengthened. The Godly Play approach teaches classical Christian language in a way that enhances the child’s authentic experience of God so it can contribute to the creative life of the child and the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/13b9c031-3c50-4fe4-bd52-43a55db8d4e8/SA_play_2.jpg Visit on Sunday - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/bf48e310-7229-4560-8afc-ef63003b3d97/SA-Morning-prayer.jpg Visit on Sunday - Morning Prayer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/a411536a-152f-4876-b7ca-05453de05294/Meet-with-us.jpg Visit on Sunday - Meet with Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/18ff0db7-b20d-4b3b-bb50-7a5ac238b68f/SA-small-group.jpg Visit on Sunday - Small Groups https://www.staidanskc.org/morningprayer daily 0.75 2025-12-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/8575a025-780f-4305-9351-93df12b32c71/Common-Book-of-Prayer-edit-2.jpg Morning Prayer - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/93f4a454-f37d-4197-b054-8f1e9e79629c/daily+office+logo_sm.png Morning Prayer - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/dfbf226a-1cd3-49fe-aa5e-e32689a6a4e2/SA-Visit_Sunday.jpg Morning Prayer - Visit on Sunday https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/a411536a-152f-4876-b7ca-05453de05294/Meet-with-us.jpg Morning Prayer - Meet with Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/18ff0db7-b20d-4b3b-bb50-7a5ac238b68f/SA-small-group.jpg Morning Prayer - Small Groups https://www.staidanskc.org/faq daily 0.75 2026-01-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/89acf122-183a-414b-9b16-35538acf3829/anglican+communion+2b.png FAQs - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/c7fee78b-7abd-4b3b-800e-eb5395725fd0/SA-BG_3.jpg FAQs - About Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/2143489f-049e-47e4-8f06-37de700c4764/SA-BG_4.jpg FAQs - Your Path https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/3cbbd689-b890-49c0-8fa5-1b78308f81b6/SA-bg_1.jpg FAQs - Connect with Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/1e84d2b8-5c41-4c9c-ba81-64b1886f7c78/SA-BG_7.jpg FAQs - Resources https://www.staidanskc.org/meet-with-us daily 0.75 2025-12-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/b30abe08-4479-4a6f-a1e2-78d6160aa75a/Meet-with-us.jpg Meet with Us - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/dfbf226a-1cd3-49fe-aa5e-e32689a6a4e2/SA-Visit_Sunday.jpg Meet with Us Visit on Sunday https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/bf48e310-7229-4560-8afc-ef63003b3d97/SA-Morning-prayer.jpg Meet with Us Morning Prayer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/18ff0db7-b20d-4b3b-bb50-7a5ac238b68f/SA-small-group.jpg Meet with Us Events & Ministries https://www.staidanskc.org/small-groups daily 0.75 2025-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/eca96ffd-2210-4597-aa71-24d1fa94e635/SA-small-group.jpg Small Groups - House Communities House Communities meet throughout the KC metroplex. We have gatherings in strategic regions of our city, from north of the river to south of our main campus. In House Communities, relationships are formed, prayer is offered and received, the Scriptures are read and discussed, and God is worshiped. These gatherings are our basic relational building blocks. Before attending a House Community, we ask newcomers to attend Sunday Eucharist a bit, check out daily Morning Prayer, and meet with clergy and staff to assess the next best step towards exploring St. Aidan’s. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/bf48e310-7229-4560-8afc-ef63003b3d97/SA-Morning-prayer.jpg Small Groups - Morning Prayer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/a411536a-152f-4876-b7ca-05453de05294/Meet-with-us.jpg Small Groups - Meet with Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/dfbf226a-1cd3-49fe-aa5e-e32689a6a4e2/SA-Visit_Sunday.jpg Small Groups - Visit on Sunday https://www.staidanskc.org/your-path daily 0.75 2025-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/97716e21-ca3a-4feb-8c70-1ba2d2a0db8c/ancient+path+icon_sm+orange.png Your Path - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/72bf1968-4297-400c-b056-2b73fcb02f36/your+path+line.png Your Path - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/73a2663f-3d2c-4cae-8782-dbd5dc154477/your+path+line+2.png Your Path - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/87a88aa4-dad5-490a-839b-58f103966f9a/your+path+line+3.png Your Path - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/73a2663f-3d2c-4cae-8782-dbd5dc154477/your+path+line+2.png Your Path - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/ffde6a9d-4de4-47af-9d44-f44b7f6df78d/Your+path+5.png Your Path - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/c7fee78b-7abd-4b3b-800e-eb5395725fd0/SA-BG_3.jpg Your Path - About Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/d6eb3b97-354a-4653-b562-c64490c889dc/SA-BG_5.jpg Your Path - FAQs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/3cbbd689-b890-49c0-8fa5-1b78308f81b6/SA-bg_1.jpg Your Path - Connect with Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/1e84d2b8-5c41-4c9c-ba81-64b1886f7c78/SA-BG_7.jpg Your Path - Resources https://www.staidanskc.org/resources daily 0.75 2026-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/c7fee78b-7abd-4b3b-800e-eb5395725fd0/SA-BG_3.jpg Resources - About Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/3cbbd689-b890-49c0-8fa5-1b78308f81b6/SA-bg_1.jpg Resources - Connect https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/d6eb3b97-354a-4653-b562-c64490c889dc/SA-BG_5.jpg Resources - FAQs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/2143489f-049e-47e4-8f06-37de700c4764/SA-BG_4.jpg Resources - Your Path https://www.staidanskc.org/staidan daily 0.75 2022-05-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251df08d5e5365b2df94d81/c900583b-681b-420c-a568-5c09b2d8521d/Staidan.png St Aidan - Make it stand out Our icon of St. Aidan was written by Scott Laumann (St. Aidan Icon © 2022).
