We believe that kids learn what worship is by worshipping together with their families. We love seeing kids wave flags, dance in the aisles, and use their gifts in worship.

After the offering, all kids who are registered will be brought into the multiple purpose room to hear an age appropriate message that fits with the sermon. We love seeing families leave church talking about the same text and themes but from the various perspectives of what the kids learned in children’s church and what the adults learned in the sermon.

After the message, children are split up into groups and go up to various classrooms for a time of review and application, listening to God through journaling, and praying for one another. These groups have different ages together so that the older kids can set their example and help along the younger kids.

This also allows us to be inclusive. Children of all abilities are welcome in children’s church and we delight in celebrating the various gifts each child brings as well as in seeing children help one another with their areas of weakness.

At the end of Kid’s church, children can be picked up in the classrooms above the multipurpose room.

Finally, because we value kids as important members or the body of Christ, we develop leaders in Kid’s Church and frequently invite kids to use their gifts by asking kids to pray for the offering, read scripture, sing, or dance in the worship service as well as lead a special Christmas worship service each year.
