Ministries – Children

Nursery / Toddler / Preschool

All of our teachers and adult childcare volunteers have received background screening.

Nursery, Toddler & Preschool Childcare is provided during our 9:30 am Worship Service time. The nursery is staffed with loving servants who wish to bless you with a time of spiritual refreshment on Sunday mornings.

The toddler ministry is for ages 1 1/2 to 3 year olds. This program provides a little bit of structure with a time of freeplay, a time of music, a story time, and a time of coloring.

Our preschool program is for ages 3 to pre K. Our program provides a time of learning, a time of music, and a time of physical activity during our 9:30 am morning worship time.  Sunday School is offered for preschool age children at 11:00 am during fall, winter, and spring months.

Junior Worship (2nd Sunday in September to 3rd Sunday in May)

Junior Worship is held during our 9:30 am Worship Service. The children sing songs with their family in the Sanctuary, and are then dismissed to their Junior Worship Class.  Our program provides children in Grades K-3 with a Worship Service geared to their age group. It enriches them by introducing biblical themes, prayer, music and activities through loving, reaching, teaching and equipping.

“He refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.”  ~ Psalm 23:3

PreTeen Zone (2nd Sunday in September to 3rd Sunday in May)

Children in Grades 4-6 are enriched by our Preteen Zone program held during our 9:30 am service time from September – May. The children begin in the Sanctuary with their parents for singing and dismisses to the Preteen Zone for an exciting program geared for their age group. This time is filled with biblical lessons, games, sharing and biblical growth for your child which prepares them for participation in the main Worship Service.
