Family Ministries
Children
We recognize that as parents, you are the primary spiritual nurturers in your children’s lives, and we desire to come alongside you to inspire, equip, and support you along the way. Life in the Kingdom is full of wonder, mystery, and community. Our children’s programming reflects this reality and seeks to cast a vision in children’s lives of God’s Big Story and their role in it. The following classes are currently available at both our 9AM and 11AM Sunday gatherings.
Nursery & Toddler
These classrooms are safe, nurturing places where children begin to learn some of their first truths about God—that they are safe and loved in His universe. Children experience this through individual love, prayer, and care from qualified caregivers who believe children of every age need to experience God’s love.
Nursery & Toddler classrooms are on the first floor of the main building in rooms M-100 and M-101.
Preschool
Children here begin to learn three foundational truths: God made me, God loves me, and God is with me. They explore and discover these truths through a variety of visual, auditory, and other sensory activities. Children also get chances to respond to what they learn and create something meaningful of their own.
The Preschool classroom is on the first floor of the main building in room M-102.
Kindergarten & Grade 1
This room is full of ways for children to explore, discover, and respond to the Big God Story—the Bible. This class is created to pique children’s curiosity and allow them to engage in hands-on experiences as they begin to discover what life can be like in God’s Kingdom.
The Kindergarten and Grade 1 classroom is on the first floor of the main building in room M-103.
Grades 2-5
Elementary-aged children have a unique energy all their own, and their classroom shows it. This room is full of anticipation and celebration, as well as quiet space and loving adults to help children enter into the Big God Story and respond and find their place in it.
The Grades 2-5 classroom is on the second floor of the main building in Room M-201.
