History
The First Baptist Church of Highland Park Voluntary Nursery Ministry, formally known as the Volunteer Nursery was founded in the late 1970's by Sister Helen Lee and Sister Anne Love. Sister Lee envisioned a need to allow parents to enjoy and participate in the 11:15 a.m. Sunday worship service without distractions from their little ones.
When Sister Lee relocated to W Springfield, MA, Deaconess Loretta Queen stepped in to keep the nursery open and has been the Coordinator since June 2004.
Services and Activities
The nursery is staffed by faithful dedicated adult and teen volunteers who provide quality child care with a structured Christian program.
