We love kids and value their role in God’s kingdom just as Jesus did in his earthly ministry. “Don’t push these children away. Don’t ever get between them and me. These children are at the very center of life in the kingdom.”
Mark 10:13-16 (The Message)
The nursery, Jr. Kids and Kingdom Kids opens 15 minutes before each service.
Please sign-in your child(ren) when you drop them off, and sign out your child(ren) and pick them up promptly following the service.
Middle-school youth worship with the adults in the main auditorium, and then following the music, they are dismissed to their class for their lesson.
Lil' Acorn Nursery > Ages 0-2
It is a great joy to have your child in the nursery. We consider it a privilege to serve you and your little one by providing a safe, caring environment.
Our goal is to provide a place for loving nurture, interaction, and good old fashioned play. The morning is filled with singing, stories, snacks, and prayer for each child.
Your child is very special to us. Our greatest desire is to create an environment in our nursery that would exemplify the heart of Jesus as we hear him say, “Let the little children come to me…” Matthew 19:14.
Jr. Kids > Ages 3 – Kindergarten
We start out together with the Kingdom Kids in the Celebrations Room, where we enjoy juice and bagels. We sing fun and worshipful songs to God and we have an offering time where kids can give to the kingdom.
Following our Celebrations time, we come to our Jr. Kids classroom. A typical day in here includes an interactive Bible story, object lesson or craft, and prayer. Sometimes we even have time for a snack, play dough, puppets, or games!
Kingdom Kids > 1st – 5th Grade
We start out together with the Jr. Kids in the Celebrations room for welcome time and worship.
Following our Celebration time, we go to our classroom for an interactive Bible lesson, with activities, games and sometimes a craft. Each week we have a Bible verse that we talk about and work on memorizing.
Middle School Youth > 6th-8th Grade
After we worship with the adults, we are dismissed to our classroom in the 3rd floor. We have a Bible lesson and time for discussion and prayer.
Oasis Youth Group > 6th-12th Grade
Our mission is to create a refuge for youth to experience God’s presence and equip them to do the works of the kingdom. We gather on Wednesday evenings for a time of relevant study and discussion on growing & living out our faith. We are serious about loving God and having fun, too.
Wednesday's 6:30pm - 8:30pm
