My name is Aspen Gonzales and I am happy to be your Nursery Coodinator. I am very excited at the opportunity to get to know my new little ones as well as their families.

If you have any questions feel free to email me. Many times an email will ease a worry that you may have so don't hesitate to contact me at missagonzales@yahoo.com

Please see our Nursery Brochure for detailed information about our Nursery here at First Gilbert UMC.

Did you know that the Nursery, along with the Children's Ministry program, offers a very special service to children with special needs? We provide one-on-one staff for these children in the Sunday School classes to enable them and their families to more fully participate in the life of the church.

Nursery Hours

The nursery is available for your use during the following times:

• Sunday mornings: The 8:15 and 9:45 service times are for infants and toddlers, 0 months – 3 years of age. Children 6 years and younger are welcome during the 11:15 service. Choir members: Staff members arrive by 7:45 if you need care for your children.
• Sunday afternoons: 1:00 – 3:00 for Divorce Care. There is no age restriction. Any committees or other groups that would like to use our services on Sundays are welcome to with a minimum of a 2 week notice.
