Children and Worship

Sunday Morning Nursery

Sunday mornings we offer a nursery for children up to age 4. Our nursery is located in the student building (SB) #4. Please sign your child into the nursery upon arrival. The nursery staff will assist you with our simple security procedures and take wonderful care of your little ones.

Children’s Sunday School

Children’s Sunday School meets each week from 9:45 a.m. to 10:45 a.m.

Children Kindergarten thru 6th grade meet in the Worship Center (in the left hall of the student building) for joys, concerns, and prayer.

Children will then be divided into age-specific groups and learn Bible stories through games, cooking, art, drama, science, and movies.

Children’s Church

All children are invited to listen to the children’s sermon during worship. Following children’s sermon, children age 4 thru 2nd grade can attend children’s church. We will escort the children over to the student building and parents may pick up their child up following worship service.

Children’s Choir and Handchimes

Kids of the Kingdom, grades K-6, learn how to use their musical talents to worship God in all aspects of life. At various times throughout the school year, the children will present their gifts to the congregation during the Traditional worship service.
