Please be advised that we would like to facilitate an atmosphere conducive to worship and reflection, and as such we ask that parents of small children strongly consider leaving their young ones at home. In any case, noise and disruption should be kept to a minimum, and parents are expected to maintain supervision of their children at all times. All minors MUST be accompanied by a parent or responsible adult.
