Nursery
- Goal: To provide a caring, well trained staff who nurture the physical, emotional & spiritual needs of babies and toddlers.
- Parents are always welcome! We provide loving care from birth to three years of age. Our "Little Blessings" program offers babies and toddlers more than childcare by providing age appropriate Christian songs, fun and creative activities, snack, singing & Bible stories. A digital paging system for parents is located in the Sanctuary. Worship services be heard in the Nursery and Upper Fireside Room.
- For additional information, please contact Nursery Coordinator: Rebecca Stirling.
Children's Church
Kid's Church is a wonderful way to introduce your child to worship and prepares them for worship in our sanctuary as they finish 3rd grade.
Our Kid's Church Crew welcomes all Preschool thru 3rd graders to an age appropriate worship service designed especially for them! Kids church is held during the 9:00 & 10:30 services. Just after the Children's Blessing during both adult worship services, kids are led to Lower Fireside Room.
Kid’s Church Summer Beach Party Has Begun
Our very own Kids Church Crew will lead children in this worship service. This summer it's Beach Party Praise Time where children will engage in a high energy worship and praise time designed just for them. We will be focusing on Loving God and Listening to Jesus. Using Scripture memory and interactive Bible learning will help kids build their understanding of God and His Word.
