welcome to little trinity’s
children’s ministry
Little T has long been a community that welcomes and deeply values children.
We follow the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, which recognizes the integrity of the child’s spiritual life and relationship with God. It provides a rich, intentional setting for the nourishing of that relationship in the context of community, and supports the developmental needs of the child. These are our core values which shape everything we do on Sundays, as well as a growing effort to support the spiritual life of the child and family in the home.
This website is a collection of resources for families to use in order to foster the Christian faith at home. Many of the resources were used in conjunction with our children’s moments during Little T’s livestream services throughout 2020 and 2021. We hope they inspire, encourage, and support you as you and your family deepen your faith together.
We also encourage you to join us in person on Sundays!
If you have any questions, please get in touch with us! Send us an email here.
Children’s Ministry Staff
Janelle Gordon — Director of Children’s Ministry
Janelle has been a parishioner at Little T since 2001. Both Janelle and her husband, Stephen, have volunteered in the Children’s Ministry since their sons, now 9 and 11, were babies. Now she is blessed to continue serving Little Trinity’s children and families in her role as Director.

Janelle enjoys reading, cooking, eating out, and spending time with her family and friends. She avoids gardening whenever possible.
Natalie Lundy – Assistant Director of Children’s Ministry and Level 2/3 Lead Catechist
Natalie respects the relationship that already exists between God and the child. Her desire is to help each child come closer to God by themselves. In understanding a child’s developmental stages, it shows that they long for the essential truths of Christianity and the unchangeable love of the Good Shepherd. Natalie has been serving in Children’s Ministry at Little T since 2013. She has received Level 1 (3-6 year old), Level 2 (6-9 year old), and Level 3 (10-12 year old) certification in the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, Little T’s foundational approach to children’s faith formation.
Natalie received a Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Penn State University, in State College, Pennsylvania. Her husband John and their two children, Luke and Annelies, are her blessings.
Natalie’s prayer is that all children find the golden thread that connects them into His church and into His kingdom.
