For your Kids.

 
 

In Kids, our mission is to develop leaders who are passionately in love with Jesus. Each week, future world-changers grow more in love with God and his house through worship, interactive lessons, and of course, fun! It’s not babysitting, it's leadership development.

Our goal is for your kids to have a genuine relationship with God, build a Biblical foundation for their lives, grow with friends and leaders, and love being at church.

INFANT

BIRTH - 1 YEAR
Your infants will experience a time of structured activities designed to cover the basics of human development and fine motor skills. As your child grows, acclimation is introduced to encourage healthy development. Each volunteer will pray over the babies, and they are equipped to share the love of Jesus, give hugs and have fun during our service time.

TODDLER

2 - 5 YEAR OLDS
Your toddlers will experience a fun environment designed to teach through song, story time, and crafts. More time is devoted to lesson time and worship to help prepare your young ones as they grow and develop. In Kids preschool we want kids to understand three basic truths: God loves me, God made me, and Jesus wants to be my forever friend.

CHILD

Kindergarten-4th
In Kids Elementary, we bring the Bible to life! Your older children will experience a time of worship and a message designed specifically for their age group. It is our goal for each Kids Elementary child to grasp three basic truths: I need to make the wise choice (wisdom), I can trust God no matter what (faith), I should treat others the way I want to be treated (friendship).

Your first visit.

From babies to fourth graders, our team wants to give your family an excellent experience.

When you arrive, our team will happily show you the way to the children’s area. You’ll go to the first-time check-in station where you can tell us a little about your family to help us serve you well. On our check-in form we’ll ask things like what allergies your child may have, how many children are in your family, and get your contact information.

Then, you and your child will both get a sticker with a matching code. If for any reason we need to reach you during the service, you’ll see your child’s code on the screen during main service. This sticker is also what you’ll use to pick up your child after the service.
