Sunday Morning for Kids

Sunday School and Children’s Church

Kids learn through their play, so fun is BIG in how we teach in lead on Sunday mornings with Sunday School and Children’s Church.

Preschool Sunday School – 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 options

Preschoolers (babies – kindergarten) have Sunday School classes available at 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 each Sunday morning.  The Bible stories are the same from session to session, but have different accompanying activities so that children staying through multiple hours are continually engaged.

Grade School Sunday School (1st – 6th grade) – 8:15 and 11:00 options

Our Sunday School classes give grade school children fun, caring, and purposeful instruction in God’s infallible word.  Our curriculum  is carefully chosen and provides a balanced approach to central Bible concepts, essential Bible skills, foundational Bible stories  and life applications for young children through preteens.

Children’s Worship or “Children’s Church” – 9:30 for 1st -6th graders

Children’s Church is a worship service designed especially for 1st – 6th graders and takes place every Sunday starting at 9:30.  Children are hard-wired to move around more than adults, so we take into account the way need to move with the way they worship and learn. We meet in the Worship Center with the adults for a special “children’s focus” with the pastor and sing praise and worship songs with the rest of the congregation before we move to the Family Life Center (FLC) for the rest of our activities.

When we get to the FLC, Children’s Church actually splits into two churches – 1st through 3rd grade and 4th through 6th grade.  They both have fun, age appropriate lessons, engaging activities that reinforce their lesson and gametime in the gym – though not necessarily in that order.

Once children are released into our care for Children’s Church, they are accompanied by leaders whether in the Worship Center, traveling to the FLC, or participating in any activities.  Children who have not been picked up from Children’s Church by 11:00 are walked to their appropriate Sunday School classes.
