Children’s Ministry
Welcome to our Children’s Ministry! We believe that a strong church starts with its littlest members. Our team is passionate about teaching faith formation to children. The safety of our kids is our top priority. Click here to learn more about our Safe Sanctuary policy or to be trained.
From Sunday mornings to Wednesday nights, there’s a place for your little one(s) to learn and grow.
Our Programs:
Children’s Church (3 years to 5th grade)
Children’s Church meets following Children’s Moments. It is open for children ages 3 years to 5th grade. Kids ages 3 years through 5th grade will dismiss to the gym for scripture study and fellowship that is geared toward them. Like adult worship, Children’s Church is grounded in the beloved Bible stories and lessons. Parents pick their children up from the gym lobby after worship.
Pick up will be in the Gym Lobby. In keeping with our Safe Sanctuaries policy, parents are not permitted in the Gym for pickup. Please approach the gym door for a quick dismissal. We thank you for help keeping Children’s Ministries safe and organized.
Nursery (6 weeks to 3 years)
We have a nursery available during worship for infants aged 6 weeks through 2 years. Drop off and pick up in the nursery hallway (hallway in the front of the sanctuary)
All nursery staff are CPR and first aid certified and have been background checked.
Please review the following important protocols:
· Nursery (6 weeks to 3 years) drop off/pick up in nursery hallway.
· Children’s Church (3 years to 5th grade) pick up is in the gym lobby. On Communion Sundays, children are brought back into the Sanctuary.
· In keeping with our Safe Sanctuary policies we thank you for not entering the gym or nursery room.
