Our Children's Ministry requires the very best we can offer. It is through our ministry with children that seeds are planted and lives are changed. In Jesus’ words, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” It is our desire that our children’s ministry would break down any barrier that separates a child from experiencing the love of Jesus and equip them to overcome the Goliaths of their day.
CLASSES
Children ages infancy through the sixth grade are welcome to participate in the classrooms from 9:15 am - 10:15 am. We strive for a small group approach in our Sunday School program. Teachers provide biblically-sound activities and lessons that are learner-based, active, and planned to make a lasting impression on our students. We also include various mission projects inside and outside our classrooms throughout the year.
NURSERY & CHILD CARE MINISTRY
Infants and children up to age four are lovingly cared for in our Nursery during our Sunday 10:30 am service. We take parents' cell numbers to be notified quickly and easily if their child requires parental attention. We always have age-appropriate equipment and toys to make the ideal environment for the children to begin learning about God and his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We share Jesus through music, coloring pages, and age-appropriate activities during nursery time.
We also offer child care during special times throughout the week so that parents can be involved in a small group and know that their children are well cared for during this learning time.
CHAPEL CHILDREN'S CHURCH
Chapel Children's Church is a particular time for 4-year-olds through third graders to experience God through kid-friendly worship activities during the 10:30 service. Children's Church takes place in the K-6th grade Sunday School room. Please pick up your children in this room after the worship service.
MINISTRY SAFE
All Teachers, Assistants, Nursery CareGivers, and paid Child Care Providers in our Children’s Ministry must meet the requirements of our church’s “Ministry Safe" policy which includes, but is not limited to, criminal background checks, child abuse history clearances, and annual training events. Please be assured that we have taken every precaution to ensure that your child will be safe and properly cared for while in our Children’s Ministry programs and events.
